Tara is a mountain located in Western Serbia. The mountain is part of the Dinaric Alps. This mountain is surrounded by the Drina river canyon, and its slopes lead into the valley of the Đetinja river, which is adjacent to the Zlatibor Mountain. Tara is one of the Starovlaško-Raška mountains and is formed out of three separate sections, divided by valleys, slopes and river beds.
Scientists estimate that the northern side of the mountain was once a shore of the Pannonian Sea, which is confirmed by limestone sediment present in the northern section of the mountain. Most of the mountain, the average height of which is between 1000 and 1200 meters, is actually limestone.
A bit secluded, with a very pleasant climate, it is a locality that is home to many living fossils, the most famous of which is surely the Picea omorika. The climate is characteristically mountain-like, with cold winters with a lot of snowfall, and chilly summers. Rain is very common in May, whereas July and August are the driest months.
The first section of the mountain is Ravna Tara with Kaluđerske Ponds, and this section is located between the Drina, the Rača, the Konjska River, the Beli Rzav, and Derventa.
The second section would be Crni Vrh, located between the villages of Rastište and Zaovine, on the borderline between Sebia and Bosnia and Herzegovina. It merges with Ravna Tara on the Čemerište ridge, as well as with Zvijezda on the Predov Krst ridge. The highest peak of this section is Kozji Rid, which reaches a height of 1591 meters above sea level.
The third section, Zvijezda, is situated between Jagoštica, Rastište and the Drina river canyon. Its highest peak is Veliki Kraj, 1444 meters above sea level.
