This horseback riding tour is arranged by local guides that are horse people through and through. You do not need to be an experienced rider to join this tour. Whether you are a beginner or an expert, this is the tour for you. You will have a certified safety helmet on the tour that is doable for both experienced and less experienced horse riders.

2
The Vrdnik Tower on Fruška Gora is the only guard tower in the Srem region in Serbia. It is assumed that the tower was built by the Roman Emperor Probus, while the historical documents first mention it in 1315. Until the arrival of the Ottomans, the tower had great significance, because the entire Srem could be seen from its top. After a few minutes of climbing you'll end up at the oval walls of the tower. It's a few meters shy of being 20m tall, and is cylindrically shaped. The view of the forests of Fruška Gora from up there is highly inspiring, and utmost impressive.
This activity is included only for the "Horseback Riding and Hiking" option.
3
Prepare yourself for a little climb up a steep slope, after which you'll arrive to the great hall. The hall is 4m high and was made by digging out stones, most probably to be used for the Rakovac monastery nearby. Stone pillars hold the vault. The mine was closed during the thirties. There are steps clad in stone, so you can explore the inner chambers. The entire complex is gargantuan and unique to Fruška Gora.
This activity is included only for the "Horseback Riding and Hiking" option.
