Boranja, Jagodnja and Sokolska - three mountain beauties in Serbia - embrace Radjevina, a region covered in woods and pastures crossed by clear streams.

According to legend, Radjevina was named after Duke Radja, one of the seven knights of Prince Lazar.

In the heart of this geographical area in western Serbia is the town of Krupanj, and around it are 23 villages whose population mainly consists of farmers growing raspberries, plums and potatoes.

Not all tourist potentials have been used in Radjevina, and there are many, starting from the said mountains, which are true paradise for nature lovers, to the beautiful picnic area Zmajevac, which can be reached by asphalt road from several directions.

Six kilometers from Krupanj is the marvelous Kovacevica Cave, which has been declared a natural monument.
