Terrain descriptionOfficial mapmakers wrote a couple of words about the terrain:"...There are tens of knolls and hundreds of depressions and pits of various sizes as remains of the ancient Roman mining activities (lead, silver?). In addition, a small number of paths, mostly well runable beech and oak forest and also some open areas in the eastern part, altitude 190-320m. O-delicasy!". http://www.holidaymappers.eu/en/?page=babe

If you take decision to participating at Beograd Open, our warm recommendation is to visit Ada Ciganlija lake.
