Специјален природен резерват Гоч, Nature reserve on Mount Goč in central Serbia.
Goč Special Nature Reserve is a mountain forest in central Serbia covered in beech and fir trees with numerous natural springs throughout its territory. The area features established trails that wind through the varied woodland landscape.
The area received official protection in 2014 when the Serbian government designated it as a nature reserve. Historical mining activity from the Roman period left traces beneath the forest that remain visible to researchers.
The reserve draws hikers and nature enthusiasts who come to experience the unspoiled forests and natural springs in their original state. Visitors can walk through landscapes that have remained largely untouched for centuries.
Visitors should wear sturdy shoes and bring weather-appropriate clothing since the mountain paths can be wet and uneven. The warmer months offer the best hiking conditions when trails are more accessible and easier to navigate.
The forest is home to an extraordinary range of plant and animal life with hundreds of plant species and over 170 vertebrate species including rare mountain birds. This biological wealth makes it a place where observers can encounter wildlife they might not see elsewhere in the region.
