Jelovarnik, Natural waterfall in Kopaonik National Park, Serbia

Description

Jelovarnik is a waterfall in Kopaonik National Park that drops about 71 meters across three separate cascades. Water rushes through thick forests of beech and maple trees, creating a rugged landscape shaped by flowing water and stone.

History

The waterfall was officially documented by geologists in 1998, though local people had known of it for much longer. This recognition led to its protection as part of the national park system.

Culture

The waterfall forms part of a protected 57-hectare natural area within Kopaonik National Park, representing Serbian natural heritage preservation efforts.

Practical

Access is via marked hiking trails that wind through the national park, requiring about two kilometers of walking. The terrain is steep in places, so good footwear and time for a careful climb are important.

Did you know?

This is Serbia's second-highest waterfall and sits roughly two kilometers east of Pancipev vrh peak. The location remains quieter than other natural attractions in the region, offering visitors a calm experience away from busier routes.
