Mt. Tara gem Spajici: You can enjoy most beautiful view of the canyon from an observation deck above the lake
The lake was created by when a dam was built on the Beli Rzav River, and is one of the most beautiful reservoirs in this part of Serbia
When tourists step into the Tara Mountain National Park area, it's unclear what they are more enthusiastic about - the hiking trails, the cycling routes, the wealth of flora, or the lakes.
Many consider the famous Windows wallpaper taken here to be ten tiers below the actual scenery that can be seen at almost every turn in our country's fourth largest national park.
The landscape dominated by the Spajici reservoir, also known as Lake Spajici (Zaovine), is for many the most beautiful image of Serbia.
The lake has vertical mountain cliffs bordering one of its sides, and on the other are hills covered in dense woods. From high up, it looks like a green emerald that nature has hidden from prying eyes.
Although it appears to be natural, this lake is actually the work of human hands. It was created by when a dam was built on the Beli Rzav River and serves to collect filtered water from Zaovine, Popovica Stream and Zmajevacka River.
In addition to being perfect for swimming in the summer, Lake Spajici is excellent for walking and getting to know the natural beauty of Mt. Tara.
From the nearby the Grad observation point, known among the locals as Ravna Stijena ("Flat Rock"), you can see the divine landscapes of the Sklopovi Canyon.
