  • Trail Description

    At the summit of Veliki Karaman, impressive granite rock formations provide spectacular panoramic views. From here, you can see Rtanj to the north, Jastrebac and Stara Planina to the east, while to the west the views extend to the distant mountain ranges of Prokletije, the Šar Mountains, Bjelasica, Komovi, Durmitor, as well as the peaks of Ravni Kopaonik.

    The Metođe Spring (Geyser) is a traditional pilgrimage site where water flows from a rocky cliff and is believed to have healing properties. Since 1504, miners on Kopaonik have commemorated St. Methodius Day every year on July 3. According to local tradition, on July 3, 1504, the Ottoman authorities forced miners to continue working despite the feast day. A violent storm struck, lightning ignited the mine, and many miners lost their lives. The site has since become a place of remembrance and local significance.

    Today, Metođe is a protected nature reserve within Kopaonik National Park, renowned for its six distinct spruce and beech forest communities and numerous rare and relict plant species.
