Discover the picturesque Zagaj hills - a place as if created by hobbits, enjoy along the mighty Danube, cross it by a unique ferry and explore the 12th century Ram fortress!
Zagaji hills (SRB "Zagajička brda") - a fairytale landscape on the northeastern edge of the Deliblato Sands. The ball-shaped hills of attractive appearance are ancient sand dunes, partly forested and partly covered with steppe vegetation, a unique relic of the original landscape of the Pannonian lowlands before it was swallowed by arable land.
Located on a rock that slopes towards the Danube from the northeast side, Ram fortress built in a 12th century was completely reconstructed in 2019 and is a must see tourist destination today. This cultural monument has multiple meanings for the preservation of the historical thread and cultural identity of Serbian society.
