Toegang

For Slano Kopovo you need a car. Nearest city is Novi Bečej, and from there Slano Kopovo is about 7 kilometers away. The lake can be accessed from north and from south. From both sides best is to park near the main road and continue on foot. In autumn and winter, boots are recommended. Driving around the lake on dirt tracks is prohibited.

It is possible to walk around the lake using circular path. If coming in morning, the best direction is clockwise, so that the sun is in the back most of the time. There are 3 bird hides/towers on the lake. Two are on the western side and one on the eastern side. The first one is 300m south of the visitor center, covering the waterbirds. The second one on the south-west shore, covering the shorebirds. The third one is actually behind the second smaller lake further on th east and is covering reed and grassland species.
