    Beschreibung

    Welcome to our unique project in central Serbia! Our place is surrounded by abundant nature with no neighbours but the mountains, and sits in the shadow a medieval fortress that has been inaccessible for 50 years. We now provide access by driving the boat and maintain the fortress so that tourists can see this exciting part of history.

    The project began when we acquired the land in 2022. We make our living from tourism, and put effort into making this a magical place to visit. There are two parts to our project: the commercial tourism and the Rural Cultural Centre.

    This year we are focussing on opening a Kafana (a tavern) for visitors, developing the Cultural Centre and continuing to renovate accommodation.
    Around us, in the famous Lilac Valley, we have a cooling waterfall, a beach watching the green river curve into the distance, and an animal farm home to goats, ponies, with sheep and donkeys soon to join us.

    We are now looking for strong-spirited volunteers who are keen to get on board with the idea. Above all, you will be part of an initiative to bring cultural life back into the rural area. You will see how we can respect the land and bring it to life.

    Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

    You will be living as part of an ever-growing, international community. In the summer, there is a big mix of crowds living with us and helping us. We cook and eat together, and relax in the waterfall after work. Many lasting friendships have been made, and you can get to know the locals that come and share rakija with us.

    We are uniquely placed under the fortress, a significant part of Serbia’s rich and turbulent history. Our very own archeologist will chat will you about what this place was like in yore.

    Our friends from the surrounding villages make delicious young cheese, kaymak, ham, blackberry wine, plum rakija and many other delicacies. We sell them to visitors and treat ourselves.

    We run regular events and workshops in our Cultural Centre. We offer mushroom foraging, traditional drumming, making rakija amongst others. If you’d like to share a skill, we can gather the troops.
