Sargan Eight - Sarganska osmica -- Mokra Gora -- Sargan Mountain Railways

Then…..
From Belgrad to Dubrovnik and Zelenika, on 760 mm narrow-gauge track, from 1925 to 1974, through tunnels, over the bridges and through mountain gorges, ran famous train Cira, leaving behind itself remarkable smell of steam locomotive smoke…

Now….
We have renewed this part of railway, which represents unique construction work, on the route from station Sargan Vitasi to Mokra Gora, and once again echoes the sound of the wagon and cheerful murmur of tourists on the train on famous Sargan eight.

From Mokra gora to Sargan Vitasi you will pass through 22 tunnels,over five bridges,and overcome the altitude difference of 300 meters, and all that on a total distance of 15,440 meters. During your ride you will have an opportunity to see from one of five observation platforms all the beauty and richness of the nature of this region.
