OVCAR-KABLAR GORGE
The Ovčar and Kablar gorge is located in the central part of Serbia, as part of the West Pomoravlje region. It is a dividing point between the high Šumadija region in the north and Dragačevo and Stari Vlah plateau in the south.
It is one of the Serbia’s regions that have been in the focus of attention for centuries, owing to its natural values and the memorial heritage of the past. The basic natural characteristics of the gorge are the imposing mountain massifs of Ovčar and Kablar, which gave name to the gorge. The main morphological trait of the gorge are the markedly expressive curves of the Morava river course in the lower part of the valley, which our distinguished scientist Jovan Cvijić described as grafted or ‘clenched ‘meanders. Decision of the government of the Republic of Serbia (Official Gazette of RS No. 16/2000), the Ovčar and Kablar gorge have been declared a protected natural area of first category – Area of Outstanding Features. The protected zone covers an area of 2250 ha, 1700 ha of which is part of the Cacak municipality, and 550 ha belong to the Lučani municipality. The area of the gorge is subject to Level Two protection regime (542 ha) and Level Three protection regime (1707 ha).
OVCAR BANJA
At the heart of Ovčar and Kablar gorge, surrounded with the greenery of vast wooded spaces, are the springs of thermal mineral water of Ovčar Banja. This hidden gem of nature lies at 17 th kilometre on the road connecting Cacak with Zlatibor and the region of Western Serbia (M5). The spa is located within a minor morpho-tectonic widening, at the confluence of the Banjski potok creek and the river Zapadna Morava, at an altitude of 278 m above the sea level.
In addition to the thermal mineral water springs, the nature has bestowed Ovčar Banja with its river and the river lakes, welcoming sports people, recreationalists and nature lovers.
