TAKE A BREAK IN THE NATURE Craving something sweet?
Whether you're driving, cycling, or strolling through Baranja, outdoors is the perfect way to spend a sunny day. Every stop along this cheerful sightseeing route is worth admiring, that much is certain. But a couple of places truly stand out: Kopački Rit Nature Park with its wooden walkways weaving through wetlands, and the Batina Battle Memorial offering breathtaking views over three countries.
And it’s only natural that moments of active exploring call for moments of pure relaxation and indulgence. Which is why you should chase it with a shot of craft rakija, a glass of fine local wine, or — the author’s personal favourite — a cup of coffee paired with dessert. Whatever you choose, take a moment to pause, relax, and treat yourself to a little Baranja sweetness.

In the heart of the wetlands
Located right at the entrance to Kopački Rit Nature Park, Lounge bar "Lopoč" is the perfect place to start (or wrap up) your visit to this birdwatcher’s paradise. Surrounded by the park’s natural beauty, Lopoč offers refreshing drinks and delicious desserts in a peaceful setting. Its outdoor area features wooden paths and shaded terraces with gazebos, providing a comfortable spot to relax away from the sun. Although the interior of the bar is somewhat smaller, its outdoor areas are spacious and well-suited for all visitors. The staff is friendly and always ready to help, and the sweet treats offered at Lopoč come straight from Baranjske slastice Horvat (Baranja sweets Horvat). The lounge bar is open daily from 8 AM to 8 PM.

A spectacular view
With a spectacular view of the mighty Danube and right next to the Batina Battle Memorial, you'll find Caffe Bar Panorama. A favourite gathering spot for both locals and visitors, Panorama is famous for its laid-back atmosphere and delicious homemade cakes and desserts from Baranjske slastice Horvat, known for irresistible treats. Panorama is open from mid-April to November, every day except Mondays, from 10 AM to 10 PM. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy the perfect blend of stunning nature and local hospitality.
