Zaječar with children

The town is not a family destination in the classic sense, but it has enough open space, water and caves to fill two days.

Water and woods

The Timok riverside and Kraljevica combine without a car.

  1. 10:00 – 13:00

    Town beach on the Timok

    Kraljevica

    Swimming pool, sports hall, riding club and hippodrome on one site.

Romans and caves

Ruins and stalactites work better with children than display cases.

  1. 10:00 – 12:30

    Felix Romuliana

    Big walls, towers, mosaics to look at – a site to walk, not a silent hall.

  2. 14:30 – 17:00

    Lazar's Cave

    An 800-metre trail through four great halls. Pack a warm jacket.

3 days in Zaječar

The standard plan for first-time visitors: one day in town, one for the Roman heritage and thermal springs, one in the wine country. Without a car, days 2 and 3 only work in part.
