A word or two to you…
Having been born and raised in Serbia, then having spent more than half of my life in the UK, I guess that I can say that I have experienced both worlds. I am an experienced, fully licensed ski instructor, speaking three languages, fluent in Serbian and English. I decided to get back to nature, so I built a luxurious log home at the very top of Zlatibor’s peak, Tornik, whic
h is nearly 1,500m above sea level. It is the place where I breathe fresh pine air, absorb beautiful views and nature at its best. Chalet Honka offers you the height of luxury, in rural, peaceful and quiet surroundings allowing you to embrace nature. You can enjoy activities as simple as walking over 75km of marked runs, wildlife watching; or just enjoying the breath taking views over the mountains of Serbia towards Bosnia and Montenegro. For the more adventurous guests, skiing is the most sought after activity, followed by paragliding, horse riding and mountain and quad bike racing. The local spa centre is only a 10-minute drive away where you can enjoy swimming, the steam room, jacuzzi and massage therapy. The local diet is Mediterranean with the natural influence of Serbian cuisine. Everything is homemade from fresh, local produce. Nothing is processed. There is wide and varied menu, from bread and pastries to dairy products, meat and vegetables. A specialism is lamb spit roasted over an open fire; it will be an experience for your palate. Whilst I recommend the local flora based teas, I do keep a supply of PG Tips, just in case! The locals are very friendly and will undoubtedly offer you a glass of moonshine plum brandy at any time of day. It is your choice whether to accept the drink. You won’t offend anyone by declining. My team and I look forward to joining us here at Chalet Honka at Zlatibor, Tornik.
