Balta Berilovac

About Balta Berilovac

Balta Berilovac is a quiet Serbian village among the foothills of Stara Planina, where open hills, clear night skies and traditional rural life create a peaceful nature retreat.

Village life here is unhurried, with farms, local cooking and dark skies shaping the atmosphere; Serbian is heard in everyday conversation. Hiking routes wind through the Stara Planina foothills, while Bigar Waterfall lies near Kalna and old churches and monasteries dot the Knjaževac region.

Ćevapi, pljeskavica, sarma and ajvar bring local flavor to the stay. Balta Berilovac village is the natural place to stay for access to the hills and waterfall.
