Description
Suva Morava ('Dry Morava') is an all-round birding destination with something for everyone: herons, cormorants, ducks, grebes, and kingfishers on the river, passerines in the trees and forests along the riverbank, predators gliding the riverbanks and surrounding agricultural fields, and even owls in the many unused chimneys and on rooftops.
This year-round birding place is one of the rare protected wetland habitats in West Serbia and is part of the 'Protected Habitat Suva Morava'.

Access
Park in the Ljubićki Kej (Ljubić Quay), the north Čačak suburbs, on the left West Morava riverbank. Start your route near the pedestrian bridge and go towards the first dam. From the dam, follow the upstream path at the top of the embankment. The path is over 4 km long and leads to the second dam on the West Morava River (forming the lake Parmenac), but you can shorten your route at your liking.
