Long time ago, 33km long Zasavica stream has been named "Bara" ["Puddle"] by the local people. The reason for that was the green cover made of rich water vegetation, which in some parts slows the stream, creating the illusion of total stillness. This stream makes possible the survival of many different plant and animal species. In order to preserve this world of rare flora an fauna, in 1997. Zasavica and its side had been put under the State protection, as a natural treasure of great importance. Zasavica is an oasis for almost 200 different plant species, 120 bird species and about 20 species of fish, amphibians and reptiles.
This year in April, thanks to the present of The Bavarian government, Zasavica got back its former inmate, European beaver, which is now again a respected habitat of this beautiful reservation.
We must point out that the greatest acknowledgment for preservation goes to always good - willing locals who live nearby and with Zasavica.
A lot has been written about Zasavica. It lives in many songs, but the most beautiful stories and songs you will hear from Zasavica itself. A boat ride through Zasavica represents a true pleasure for all of those who enjoy photo safari, because its nature will never leave you indifferent.
