Dinoša mulberry tree, Natural water-emitting tree in Dinoša, Montenegro
The Dinoša mulberry tree stands in a small village east of Podgorica and shows a rare phenomenon where water flows from its trunk. The tree reaches several meters in height and has a hollow inside connected to underground water sources.
Village residents first noticed the water flow in the 1990s and have since observed each year when and how strongly the tree releases water. Records show the phenomenon occurs mainly after longer rainy periods.
The name recalls the village where locals have watched the tree for generations, treating its water flow as a natural signal of wet seasons. Visitors often see people from nearby farms stopping by to observe the flow and take photographs of the trunk releasing water.
The water flow appears in spring and autumn when enough rain has fallen and the groundwater level rises. Those who want to see the phenomenon should come after several rainy days and look at the trunk at roughly eye level for the exit point.
The hollow in the trunk acts like a natural valve that opens when pressure in the groundwater system becomes strong enough. Visitors sometimes report that the water is cool and clear, keeping the ground around the tree moist for several days.
