Danube Road – old, new and unique Danube interregional road, Serbia

Welcome to a short car patrol that takes you along the most beautiful road in Eastern Serbia. Djerdap Road, as it is also called, along its entire length follows the river Danube, passing through the mountains through numerous tunnels. Our car patrol departs from the town of Golubac

Where the Danube is the widest in its course, more precisely 6.6 km wide. At the Golubac fortress, the river narrowed to a width of less than 1 km, more precisely, about 700 meters wide. Depending on the weather conditions, the mighty Danube changes its color, changes its nature, its width and its depth.

In order for a person to be able to visit all the beauties, good roads are needed. One of the most beautiful roads through Eastern Serbia is the Danube highway. The Danube Highway is one of the important road routes in Serbia. It stretches along the length of the right bank of the Danube, downstream.

Nature has assigned the Danube, the second longest river in Europe, here in eastern Serbia to be the widest, narrowest and deepest in its course. By the way, the Danube is the natural border of 10 European countries, namely: Germany, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, Romania, Bulgaria, Moldova and Ukraine. Eastern Serbia is extraordinarily beautiful,

wild and unexplored, and at the same time gentle and tame, in a word, the land of good people and a turbulent past. Traveling along this road section, in addition to careful driving, carefully absorb the beauty of the landscape you pass by.

On the Danube highway between the town of Golupac and the town of Donji Milanovac, Djerdap gorge is located, one of the largest and most beautiful river gorges in Europe. The Djerdap Gorge was created when the Danube River made its way through the Carpathians. The gorge was inhabited since prehistoric times,

As evidenced by the Neolithic archaeological sites in it, for example Lepenski Vir. The Danube highway was completely reconstructed in 2022, for the first time after its construction in the eighties of the last century. On this road we are going, armies and merchants walked since the time of the Roman emperors and emperors.

This is a travel route that you will enjoy in every way. The Danube highway is about 120 km long, and we escorted the section from Golupac to Donji Milanovac, in the length of 55.5 km. Most of the Djerdap Road is located on the territory of the Djerdap National Park.

I hope you enjoyed this short overview.

Danube River, road beside it, Djerdap National Park, Serbia. The Danube highway is more than a road, it is a journey through history, nature and the Serbian soul. Who knows what else will surprise you around the bend and behind the hill? The Danube highway in Serbia is not only an asphalt road by the river, but also a living history. The Danube (Croatian Dunav, slch. Dunaj, Ukrainian Dunaj, Romanian Dunărea, Hungarian Duna, Turkish Tuna, German Donau, Slavic Donava, English Danube) has been a trade artery since time immemorial, and the highway inherited that spirit. Driving it, you walk in the footsteps of Romans, Ottomans, Habsburgs… Every bend hides the ruins of fortresses, castles and monasteries that whisper about the past. Stop by the Golubac fortress, visit the prehistoric Lepenski Vir site.
