Experiences
Day trips in one valley, then weekend routes on the same road — Stara Planina and Jerma are not in the same direction.
Day trips
Visit Pirot Experience
Jerma River Canyon & Monasteries
Culture and nature in one day — Jerma Canyon viewpoints plus Sukovo and Poganovo monasteries, with a practical driving route from Pirot.
Price on request/ Per person
View details & bookWeekend routes
Joined by direction of travel. A village night makes sense only on Stara Planina; for Jerma and for both valleys, sleep in Pirot.
Weekend route
Stara Planina weekend
A weekend on one mountain road. Stara Planina sits northeast of Pirot — waterfalls and villages on day one, Gostuša and Zavoj Lake on day two. Sleep in Topli Do or Dojkinci, or return to town each evening. No reverse drive toward Jerma.
Price on request/ Per couple

Jerma & Pirot weekend
Jerma lies south of Pirot — the opposite valley from Stara Planina. Day one is the canyon and the Sukovo and Poganovo monasteries; you naturally return to town. Day two stays in Pirot: Kale, the Museum of Ponišavlje, kilim heritage, and gastro. Optional night in Zvonačka Banja instead of the city.
Price on request/ Per couple

Two valleys weekend
Both signature days in one weekend: Stara Planina to the northeast and Jerma to the south. They are not on the same road — a village night on the mountain means a long backtrack. Sleep in Pirot between the two days, then drive the other valley on Sunday.
