Useful for your trip
- Where to stay
- Rent an apartment instead of a hotel - they are much cheaper. For a three-day stay in the city center, you can pay about 10,000 rubles, including cleaning and fees.
- Transport
- Park your car until 7:00 a.m. on streets without toll zones. After 7:00 a.m., paid parking begins, and in some areas parking is prohibited for more than one hour.
- Transport
- To visit the Fruška Gora National Park, it is better to have your own car, as public transport between the villages of the park is limited.
- Tip
- Entrance to the Fruška Gora National Park is free, documents and tickets are not required. On the trails there are information stands and marked with colored pegs.
- Food
- Order one halvat and one hot dish for two - there are enough portions. Local cafes have large portions, so you can save money.
- Timing
- Plan a walk in the national park with sneakers and a swimsuit - the lake is cool even on hot days, but people swim there.
- Tip
- On the eco-trail to the Ice Lake, there are steep descents and ascents with a large difference in altitude. Assess your physical strength in advance - the distances are significant.
- Where to stay
- Stay on the left bank of the Danube, in the historic centre, with more museums, theatres, cafés and parks within a 1.5 km radius.
- Tip
- Petrovaradin Fortress has free admission and does not require tickets. It is an open area with tunnels, fortifications and views of the Danube River.
- Timing
- It is best to visit Novi Sad for a few days – it is a cozy, well-groomed city without one super-attraction, but rather to immerse yourself in everyday life.
