Nature, Routes and Cycling
Kamenički vis lies above the village of Kamenica and is named after it. The Kalafat–Niš Fortress route continues to Kamenički vis; beyond Dabila, it runs through a beautiful coniferous forest to the village of Kamenica. For a sense of the area, the hill above the village and the forest section leading into the village are two distinct landmarks. The route is very well suited to cycling tours. Suitability for cycling and current route conditions answer different planning questions: surface conditions can change, so check the route conditions before setting off.
