The municipality of Arilje is located in the western part of Serbia, in the Zlatibor district, in the basin of the Rzava and Moravica rivers. It is 195 km from Belgrade, 46 km from Čačak and 36 km from Užice. It is located in a picturesque plain at an altitude of 330m, and the villages of the upper area of the municipality are up to 800m. We started our one-day adventure not far from the village of Trešnjevica, reaching the hill - the hill of Gradina, a beautiful viewpoint from which there is an unreal view of the surrounding villages. Based on archaeological research, Gradina has been inhabited since prehistoric times, and the remains of the town that are still visible date back to the period from the 9th to the 16th century, when this place was the military seat of the parish of Moravica. The highest point of the fortification is at 670m, where the bell tower of the church of St. Prophet Elijah, which is known as the church of Hajduk. The highest peak of the municipality is the Kukutnica mountain with an altitude of 1382 m above sea level, which we were unable to conquer this time due to the lack of organized paths to the very top and the remains of snow that were still present. Below the very top is an easily accessible picnic spot next to the monument erected in honor of the battle between Serbs and Turks, which took place before St. Peter's Day in 1809, during the First Serbian Uprising. The view from this place reaches the peaks of Mučnje, Javor, Golija, Kopaonik, Željina, Mount Čemerno... We continue our journey along rural cart roads through untouched nature to the village of Brekovo and reach the canyon of the Panjica river. A well-marked path and newly built bridges lead us to the waterfalls and cascades on Panjica, as well as to the Water Cave. The crystal clear water of this mountain river and the entire landscape give the impression of the pure nature of Serbia, which we enjoyed to the fullest that day.
