Beschreibung
The Nišava River has cut a deep 17 km long gorge with steep rocky cliffs. The surrounding mountains have mostly half-rocky half-grassy slopes with sometimes small patches of forest.
The most famous bird of Sićevo Gorge is Steinhuhn. It inhabits mostly mid to high slopes of the surrounding mountains, together with Rebhuhn. The Alpendohle breeds beneath the Pleš peak, but in winter the birds gather in flocks that roam lower through the gorge. Ohrenlerche can be found in winter near mountain peaks above 1000m. Other characteristic birds of Sićevo Gorge are Zippammer, Balkanmeise, Alpensegler, and Uhu, while Wasseramsel and Gebirgsstelze can be found at the banks of Nišava River.
Details
Zugang
The Sićevo Gorge Nature Park is relatively large, with the regional road from Niš to Bela Palanka passing through.
The map of this birding place covers the mountain trail to Pleš Peak (1267m), the highest peak of the Nature Park. There are two main starting points of the trail, from Gradište village and from the regional road passing through the gorge. Note that Gradište village, like many other villages in south Serbia, is almost fully depopulated and that the local road leading to it is very narrow and not in the best condition, although perfectly passable with a careful drive. The starting point from the regional road is Ćirin Prolaz (Ćira's Passage), a small passage between the rocks at the very bottom of the gorge. Total altitude gain is about 850m if starting from Gradište or about 1000m if starting from Ćirin Prolaz, while some sections are up to 35% steep gradient. It is possible to park near both starting points, click one of the 'P' markings for directions. The trail is very well marked, but pay attention to the point (43.334196, 22.168215) where the narrow path departs right from the Via Militaris road.
The old Roman road Via Militaris connecting Naissus (modern Niš) with Serdica (modern Sofia) passes above the northern cliffs of the Sićevo Gorge. The road route is not very well preserved in some sections, so it is better to stick with the marked trails.
