Characteristics of the Vršac Mountains
The Vršac Mountains are built of rocks of Paleozoic age (260 million years), surrounded by Neogene sediments (60 million years), including the sediments of the former Pannonian Sea (25 million years). The highest point of these mountains and the whole of Vojvodina is Gudurički vrh with 641 m above sea level. Of the other peaks known are: Lisičja glava (590 m), Đakov vrh (449 m) and Vršačka kula (399 m). The northern slope of the Vršac mountains is steep, while the southern slope descends into the hills, where there are vineyards. These mountains were once an island in the Pannonian Sea, so they belong to the island mountains. From the Vršac Mountains, you will have the opportunity to see Vršac, Vojvodina and Romania from a different angle. Thanks to the specific climate, this place today has an extremely rich ecosystem - over 100 species of birds and over 1000 species of rare plants.
