About Pančićev vrh
Pančićev vrh, at 2,017 metres, is the highest point of Kopaonik, the largest mountain massif in Serbia, known as the Mountain of the Sun for its almost 200 sunny days a year. Every summer the Pančićev vrh chairlift carries sightseers from the centre of the resort to the summit for wide views over the national park, one of Serbia’s most important centres of endemic flora. Make a day of it: hire an e-bike, try the downhill trails and bike park in the Dolina sportova, or ski through the summer on the 900-metre plastic slope beside the Krst lift.
