The route passes underneath the new railway bridge across the Veliki Morava River before heading to Paraćin.
This landscape has carried movement for centuries. Roman roads, Ottoman military expeditions, caravans, railways, and modern motorways have all followed the Morava valley, using the same natural passage between the Danube basin and the peninsula's interior.
The stage continues across the flat agricultural plain toward Paraćin, another town that developed along this enduring line of travel.
