Bobija, Mountain peak in western Serbia, near Ljubovija.
Bobija is a mountain in western Serbia that rises between the Drina River and the Trešnjica River Canyon, with its main summit Tornička Bobija reaching about 1,272 meters high. The area features multiple ridges and valleys that support grazing lands and small settlements scattered across the slopes.
The region has supported local communities for generations through traditional livestock raising and fruit cultivation. These economic activities shaped how the mountain was settled and continues to define life there.
Villages in the surrounding area keep alive Serbian traditions of dairy production, making cheese and cream from cattle that graze on mountain pastures. The shepherds and their daily practices shape how the landscape looks and is used throughout the region.
The mountain sits about 140 kilometers west of Belgrade with the town of Ljubovija as the main jumping-off point for visits. Prepare for steep terrain and wear sturdy hiking boots when exploring the slopes and summit area.
The Trešnjica River Canyon nearby holds one of only two natural griffin vulture habitats in Serbia. These rare raptors ride the wind currents above the cliffs and soar above the valley gorge.
