Bor lake

Bor lake is an artificial lake in eastern Serbia, at an altitude of 438 m, less than 20 km from the city of Bor, about 250 km south east from Belgrade. It is on the road from Bor to Žagubica. Hotels and country houses are built around lake Bor, since it is a tourist attraction.



The lake is a result of the construction of a dam of the rivers Valja Dzoni, Marec and part of Zlot which took place in 1959 for the operation of the mining and smelting company RTB Bor. It has a surface area of around 30 hectares. The lowest depth of the water is 48 m. It is surrounded by forests. On its shores there is one hotel and one camping. It is popular in the summer, when the water temperature reaches 25 °C and it has two beaches. 


There are also winter activities in the area, such as skiing in the close-by facilities of the Crni Vrh mountain. Other attractions in the area are the Brestovačka Banja spa, the Stol mountain and the Gornjak monastery.
