You leave Belgrade before dawn and the motorway bends open into rolling highland pastures—Zlatibor’s ridgelines rising like a series of green steps. The road eases the tempo; by midmorning you stand before Stopića Cave’s vast throat—an entrance 35 m wide and 18 m high—where dripping limestone tubs and an underground river sculpt chambers and small waterfalls.
