Balkan Borders

ROUTE GUIDE

Zagreb to Belgrade by car

395 km on one motorway with one border in the middle of it, and that border is the whole story. The A3 out of Zagreb becomes Serbia's A3 at Bajakovo–Batrovci, the busiest crossing between the EU and Serbia; everything either side of it is flat, fast and dull in the best way.

A WORD OF ADVICE

Bajakovo queues in waves: overnight traffic out of Germany and Austria lands from early morning, and the first weekends of the German school holidays are the heaviest days of the year. From Zagreb, a dawn start puts you at the barrier before the wave breaks.
