The long and cold winters are between November and March, with some areas ideal for skiing between November and April. Beware - should you choose to explore the outdoors during this time, as from November the paths between the mountain ranges become obstructed. For a pleasant experience, visit during summer (June – August). The only time you’d have to worry about crowds is during the month of July, when many Europeans descend upon Serbia for the EXIT festival. For the cheapest flights to Serbia, visit between the months of November and April.

Due to the Yugoslav wars of 1990, there have been reports of unexploded ordinances outside the major cities. Most of them have been cleared, but stay alert when exploring areas outside the city and stick to well-travelled paths. If you find anything that resembles an explosive, keep away from it and report it to the nearest police station immediately.
