Bifurcation of Nerodimka

The Nerodimka River splits into two branches at the outskirts of Ferizaj, creating separate flows toward the Black Sea and Aegean Sea.

During the 14th century reign of King Milutin, workers constructed a canal connecting Sazlia pond to the Nerodimka River, establishing the current bifurcation.

The natural division of waters holds such significance for the local population that the municipal emblem of Ferizaj incorporates the river bifurcation.

Visitors can access the protected nature reserve through marked paths from Ferizaj, where they can observe both branches of the river system.

The Nerodimka represents the only river in Europe that naturally separates into two branches flowing into different seas, spanning 41 kilometers in length.
