Access
By car only. Park wherever you like. Explore by walking, or further driving. Basically, the dam wall and the western side are those truly productive areas (the far southwest where the river enters the lake creating a marshy habitat is underbirded and worthy of more time); while the eastern side is mostly just an access road to a good shorebirds watching spot. The Paljuvi Dam lies between the regional Ibarski put/Road and the new Milos the Great motorway, 70 km / 70 min southwest of Belgrade. Click on the P on the map to get driving directions.
