Gruža Lake, Reservoir in Šumadija District, Serbia.
Gruža Lake is a man-made reservoir created by damming the Gruža River in the Šumadija region near Kragujevac. The water is treated and supplied to thousands of residents across the area for daily consumption.
The project was planned in the 1970s and the lake began operations in 1983. It was built to provide a reliable water supply for the growing city of Kragujevac.
The surrounding region maintains traditional agricultural practices while the lake supports local fishing communities and outdoor recreational activities.
The area is accessible to visitors who want to explore the water and surrounding land. Weather is most pleasant in warmer months when paths are dry and outdoor activities are comfortable.
The lake hosts substantial fish populations, including large catfish species known for their size. Anglers and nature enthusiasts come here to experience the diverse aquatic life.
