Maglič Fortress

Local volunteers do a great job restoring and maintaining this beautiful place. The views from the fortress walls are stunning, and it’s interesting to explore inside. Thanks as well for organizing the ferry crossing. I also recommend walking to the waterfall, seeing the abandoned railway section, the tunnel, and the old railway bridge.

Awesome fortress. When arriving, use the “ferry” to get to the fortress’ base. The ferry is 300 dinar per person, but is also free every 2 hours, starting from 10:00. The hike takes around 20-30 minutes to go up. The path is easy to take since it is made up of bricks and concrete. On top of the fortress there are breathtaking views. Unfortunately, there is not much else to see inside the fortress. At the base of the fortress is a small giftshop and restaurant. You can drink something there and have something to eat, the pork sausage with cheese inside was amazing 🤩

It is worth visiting. The people who live/work there are very friendly and welcoming, ready to help you. There were almost no people when we went so we could explore the Fortress on our own. Afterward, we had some food at the house at the bottom. Highly recommend, it was very delicious.

If attenpting to visit this, look for Maglič Ferry on Google. There is a small driveway on the river side of the roadway there where I believe you can follow it to the side of the river and park. We didn't do that bc we didn't know. There is also parking across the roadway from that driveway as well, but semi trucks tend to use that area as well. The ferry costs money to cross as others have said unless you hit the free which is identifed on a sign near a tree there. It's a sizeable fortress with ruins and a quick hike. The views are great and at the time of this posting you could walk along one of the walls. There are people who run the ferry and up a little ways from the river a small cafe as that section is private property. Support them, if you can as the government is not doing anything, it appears, to make it accessible. Enjoy!

Beautiful and mysterious castle of medieval Serbia. Stunning views and fresh air to fill your lungs. The energy of the place is amazing and old. Below is a place called Maglic grad where you can get refreshments and relax in an ethno style household. The bridge that used to provide access is no longer there. Now a group of volunteers provides ferry service for free every two hours, or at any time for a small fee.

Totally recommend to visit if you are around. There is no entrance fee, you just need to pay for the ferry (300 dinars per person) if you are not there at the free hours (10-12-14-16). I also recommend eating at the restaurant placed on the way up.

One of the best places to visit in this part of Serbia. There is also Maglič city where you can have a rest, refresh, and also waterfall nearby with beautiful and untouched nature. A bit of hiking, a bit of swimming, a bit of chilling. ❤️ We have enjoyed it, and will be looking forward to coming back.
