Although they may not be a few hundred meters high, tucked away in untouched nature, the waterfalls of Serbia have a special charm.
By themselves, waterfalls evoke admiration and curiosity. Water that seeks its way, plays with earth and stone and erupts even in the most inaccessible places, it has always attracted both the local population and researchers, as well as tourists.
Waterfalls in Serbia are usually hidden somewhere in untouched nature, and they are most beautiful in the spring when the snow melts, so large amounts of water flow through them.
Pilj
On Stara Planina, otherwise the place with the most waterfalls, about four kilometers south of the village of Topli Do, located in an inaccessible forest below the top of Pilj, lies the waterfall of the same name. It is located at an altitude of about 1,450 meters, and consists of two cascades, Gornji and Donji Pilj. Pilj waterfall forms a large vortex at the bottom.
Na pomen vodopada, većina će se prvo setiti Nijagarinih ili Viktorijinih iako i u Srbiji ima mnogobrojnih vodopada, koji možda nisu veliki poput spomenutih, ali su takođe vredni pažnje.
Najveći broj vodopada se nalazi na Staroj Planini, a zbog nepristupačnosti, mnogi su otkriveni nedavno, poput najvišeg vodopada u Srbiji koji je otkriven tek 2012. godine. Kaluđerski skokovi su visoki 232 metra i nalazi se na istočnoj strani Stare planine.
