The mountainous area hides two attractions which are a draw for tourists. These are the area of Bekinska Shoburka and Mount Midzhur. The former is located at an altitude of 1,300 m and the peak is 2,168 m high. The area is rich in clear mountain streams, evergreen forests, including 150-year-old spruces, vast meadows and beautiful plant and animal kingdoms.
This area is quiet and rarely visited today but once an important Roman road passed by it from the Danube to the eastern Serbian peripheries. The mountain was crossed by the St. Nicholas Pass.
Those who visit it are fascinated by the smell of resin, herbs and wild flowers, the ice-cold water and the crystal clear air. In spring and summer, tourists can see rare plants - globeflower, martagon lily, narcissus anemone. Eagles swoop down the rocks and a wonderful flower - Serbian ramonda - blues on the rock niches. It is the only plant that, after a year of herbarization, when placed in water, it comes back to life. You can also see the mysterious wood grouse. Chuprene is the northernmost habitat of this endangered species of the fabulous animal kingdom.
The Romans used these rocks as watchtowers. Thus, the rocks, called “Glami”, combine natural and historical landmarks.
