Subotica Active leisure ENGLISH There is only a few people who know, that Subotica, known for its unique architec- ture, culture and gastronomy, also offers a number of surprising adventures for those, who wish to spend their leisure time in a nat- ural environment. The forests and meadows of the lazy Pannonian Plain are ideal for long and relaxing walks even for those who are not fit enough. Aside leisure, the lakes, Palić and Ludaš provide countless opportunities for versatile activities and sports on water. Edu- cational pathways and birdwatching in listed areas can surely be attractive for nature lov- ers. The horse farms in the neighbourhood of Subotica provide satisfaction both to children and adults, but also to those who admire the beauty of horses and those who will, maybe for the first time, attempt to ride a horse. For those with vigorous personality, bycicle will be the ideal means to combine useful with pleasure. Extreme sport fans will also find something here, especially those wanting to see Subotica and Palić from the air. Therefore, let us present you Subotica and its neighbour- hood from a new, different and dynamic per- spective. Welcome!
