Great choice for escaping the daily routine!

“Overall I did enjoy the ride!

Climbs were challenging considering my current physical condition (not so good I think), but breaks were long so I did not feel exhausted at all. As a MTB/enduro rider with medium experience I feel that I could have handle more technical descends (curves, small rock gardens, small drops), maybe I should have been specific that I was looking for that kind of tour. The forest was great! I am amazed on how vast and green is Fruska Gora in this time of season, it made me feel good vibes. I saw nice views of the forest, went to a monastery (Velika Remeta), visit a small store that sells homemade edibles and antiques. Milan (my tour guide) was very friendly and did not rush at all; he took the time to show me nice places during the whole ride, he even invited me some gibanica and lemonade. Great guy! Thanks!

If I come back to Novi Sad, I would reach out to you for a new ride in another part of Fruska Gora for sure.”
