Hunting/ Fishing Tourism
 
 A MARSH - BUT A TSAR'S ONE
 

The hunting and fishing regions of Serbia are rich and popular for both local and foreign hunters and fishermen. In addition to the great number of animals, an advantage of the Serbian hunting grounds is in the fact that those of the neighboring countries are mostly already empty, whereas the fishing regions are not contaminated and they are overfull of fish.

One of such regions is on the crossing of the roads connecting Belgrade, Novi Sad and Zrenjanin, among the rivers Begej and Tisa. This is the fishing pond Ečka, having the sports fishing grounds on carp, stuka, perch, catfish and other popular fish kinds.

The Ečka pond manages also three hunting grounds, having the total area of 7,000 hectares, just near Ečka, near Srpski Itebej and Melenci. The most attractive hunting is on the large lakes during the autumn and winter, to the wild goose and duck from a natural nest, as well as quails on agricultural and meadow areas. Wild hoar is hunted on the ground having cane and forest.

Those who like to "hunt" by cameras, near the colonies Belo Blato, Perlez and Stajićevo, have got at their disposal the special natural reservation The Tzar's Marsh, one of the 10  "ideal places" of Serbia.

This oasis of peace and untouched nature is one of the richest habitats of marsh birds and rare plant species. A unique entirety is made by the river Stari Begej, the salt mine, deciduous and meadow forests, a characteristic steppe and about 250 bird species, among which also some extraordinary ornithological rarities (herons with all their subtypes and bitterns). Some of them are in the Red Book of the worldwide endangered species. Colonies of the cawing crows, having sometimes up to 2,000 active nests, are the largest ones in Serbia and Montenegro.

Other endangered species make their nests there, as well, such as the great-nested grebe, cormorant, titmouse, kite, thrush and others. In this region hunting is permanently forbidden, as well as staying in the nature from 10 p. m. to 5.00 a. m., as well as sports fishing (except in the Stari Begej section). The conditions for a return of rare species and thereby also a photo safari, are ideal there. Hence, each season, there is an increasing number of both birds and tourists.

The tourists with cameras have got at their disposal tourist ships for 50 persons, boats, the good old carriages and the Lipice horses, ready for riding. Good trekkers choose a three kilometer long path of health.
