Tour description
This walking tour takes you from the heart of Novi Sad across the Danube river to the Petrovaradin Fortress, following the natural path that shaped the city’s history.
Along the way, you’ll discover surprising facts, local stories and lesser-known details about everyday life along the river, the role of trade and fortifications, and the empires that once competed for control of this strategic area. As you cross the Danube and approach the fortress, the stories shift from peaceful city life to military strategy, hidden tunnels and symbols such as the famous clock that tells time differently. The walk ends with a climb to the fortress, offering panoramic views and a clearer understanding of how Novi Sad developed in the shadow of one of Europe’s most important river strongholds.
