Kosutnjak Forest

This guide to Košutnjak Forest in Belgrade follows a hill that spent the nineteenth century fenced off as a royal hunting ground, and what Belgraders did with it once the gates opened. At its heart is a late-summer Sunday in nineteen seventy-seven, when Bijelo Dugme, Yugoslavia's biggest rock band, set up a free show by a spring in these woods. Along the way you'll meet a ski run on a city hill and a legend of rebel outlaws.
