Features:
The highlight of running on the right bank of the Danube River is an exploration of the Petrovaradin Fortress. Nicknamed the “Gibraltar on the Danube”, the 17th-century fortress features has numerous tunnels and 16 km of preserved underground corridors. It’s a popular visitor site and there are guided tours. The Fortress is also a good spot for running, with a ~2 km loop around perimeter paths & roads, and also some stairs. It’s a scenic, park-like area, with some great views.
Kamenički Put North. We also suggest incorporating Kamenički Put (put=road) in your run. Headed north of the Fortress, there’s some nice running along the river, and then a short wooded section. This part is 2-3 km, so combining these two is a 7.5 km run.
Kamenički Put South. You can also head south on Kamenički Put. It’s not a dedicated waterfront path, but it’s runnable. About 0.5 km south of the Fort, a smaller road, Ribnjak donji put, runs near the water into Kamenički park, which has ~1 km of trails. You can continue south of the park for another 0.8 km. This section can be up to 8k out & back.
Add-On: Danube Left Bank. Use New Žeželj Bridge to add on with our Danube Left Bank route.
