0.000 HBDMountains Are Calling And I Must Go
Hello folks! As usual, I spent my weekend in nature, in the mountains. Past 30 days I didn't stop 'cause I'm preparing myself for great adventure and I need to be in shape. I Really didn't realize how beautiful my country is, and you can't see that from school trips. This is another plus that I attach to this activity.  This post is about Miroč, a mountain in eastern Serbia. It is located in the Đerdap National Park and has a spectacular view on Danube river. Its highest peak is Štrbac and has an elevation of 768 meters above sea level.  Two years ago or maybe more, I visited that region but other great viewpoint called Sokolac. From there you are able to see windmills on the Romanian side of border.  Not so far from this point we started to climb. Our goal was to reach two peaks, first one was Small Štrbac and the other one was Big Štrbac. Photographies bellow are on our way to the top.  I had no idea that tortoises live at such a height and I was lucky to be at the beginning of the group, to see how she becomes faster than Achilles (us). Hope you know Zenon's paradox, but if you don't know, long story short is that Achilles never outrun the tortoise. :)     Zoom, zoom, zoom, and then zoom some more :) ....  Here are a few historical facts about this sculpture. This is Decebalus, the last king of Dacia and he was the one who made the victory over the Romans and reuniate his people. Thanks to him, today's Romania was born. The sculpture was made between 1994 and 2004, by Italian sculptor Mario Galeotti. I found it ironically. The rock sculpture of Decebalus is a 42.9m in height and 31.6m in width. We continued further, and even better viewpoint greeted us.    And then we went into the woods.  After two hours of hiking, my wish was to lay down and have a short nap, cause my allergy was killing me. If you have the same problem my advice to you is to buy a surgical mask and save yourself. I borrowed a scarf and all the way to the top I had a feeling I was a ninja / special kind of forest ninja :). Sub Zero from Mortal Kombat crossed my mind and I named myself just like that. Name of the picture would be "Sub - Zero wins Big Štrbac".  This is gorge Kazan (Iron Gate) and the narrowest point of beautiful Danube river.   The gorge is full of caves, both unexplored and explored used as special attractions by "extreme" tourist agencies.  We had a break here, it lasted just enough to take a few bites, group photos and to spin a song in my head, "Yes, the river knows" by The Doors. As always reaching the top of the mountain is only a halfway. It turned out that it was more difficult to go downhill, even though we had sticks. Someone from the group managed to injure his knee, so descent lasted longer than we predict. The last viewpoint was a gold medal for all of us. I had a song for that too, but it's lame. On the right you can see bigger pick (Big Štrbac).  Final look at the Iron Gate before I turned off my camera.  As always I hope that you enjoyed in untouched nature as I did. Cheers until next adventure! :)
