ABOUT THIS EXPERIENCE
The Đetinja gorge is Užice’s walking classic: the trail follows the river under the cliffs (the old railway’s companion stage toward Kremna), and the Potpećka cave — with one of the Balkans’ largest cave entrances — sits at the upper end. The iron-gorge viewpoints pair with the fortress.
