The Legend Hunt Game
Legend Hunt Game is what makes us proud the most. This is one of the adventures that enables a direct involvement to all of the participants.
The aim of the game is to stimulate psychophysical capabilities, develop a team and individual spirit, and make the right decision at critical moments. It also includes carrying out tasks and removing obstacles while using your own instincts, intuition and decisions. Your individual initiative and motivation are emphasized as well as your leadership capabilities.
Search for our legend takes place at places that are real: waterfalls, cursed and abandoned fortresses, Djavolja Varos (Devil`s Town), Suva Planina (Dry Mountain), Devojacki Grob (Maiden's Grave). You will be given a map with marked places at which secret documents and tasks are hidden. Of course, the right spot is not marked on the map so you'll have to find it yourself by using and solving the clues you'll come across.
Each task and place will not lead you straight to the solution, therefore you will have to gather all the clues during the five days of the quest, while changing locations and leaders of the quest. You will be forced to use compasses, ropes, logic, memory and intuition of the rest of your team members. You`ll be running around the abandoned castles, cursed places, mountain peaks, waterfalls... this is one adventure you`ll never forget !!!
LEGEND: “Once upon a time there lived a beautiful girl called Simonida. She was the most beautiful girl in the Kingdom of Serbia. All princes, nobility and knights from Serbia and from neighboring kingdoms, wanted to marry her.
Her father, a rich and powerful man, the elder of the village, intended to marry his beautiful daughter to the Serbian prince that Simonida was not in love with. The beauty begged her father not to marry her to a man that her heart does not beat for, but without any success.
Her father has already arranged the wedding, which was supposed to happen as soon as the full moon appears. Sunken by the pain, Simonida went to her secret place, nearby waterfalls. There, she wept in her loneliness over the bad fortune of hers.
At that very moment, the handsome and brave knight Lazar happened to pass by. He heard cries; he came to beautiful Simonida and asked her why has she cried. Simonida raised her head and as she saw the brave knight, she felt her heart beating strong. The love was born under the volleyed waterfall. There, they started dating secretly every day at the sunset, hugged and in love with each other.
Someone found her embroided handkerchief by the waterfall, saw handsome knight hugging Simonida and denounced it to her father. Father, crazy of anger and rage, sent the soldiers to kill brave knight Lazar. The couple in love foreshadowed the trouble. They decided to go through waterfall and to run away from father's rage and from his soldiers at the last moment.
Riding the white horse, the knight and beautiful girl were on their way to the only safe place they could hide in. It was Lazar's castle, damned and unapproachable fortress on the mountain top. After several days of riding and running away from the chivy, couple in love reached the safety of cavalry's castle. His people and soldiers made warm and cordial welcome to beautiful Simonida, the castle's mistress-to-be.
Angry father, together with humiliated prince, who was supposed to be Simonida's husband, decided to gather the huge army and to find the young couple. Knight Lazar's head was grafted to a big treasure and soon, everyone in the Kingdom knew that he was wanted. Not having any thoughts of what is going to happen, the young couple enjoyed their love, hidden behind the thick walls. Their happiness and safety lasted for a short time, though.
After one month, the father and prince found them. They surrounded the castle with the huge army and started exhausting battle to conquer it. The brave heart was not of a big help to brave knight and to his soldiers. The defense of the castle couldn't stand any longer. Understanding that the end is near, knight Lazar and beautiful Simonida, followed by few most faithful warriors, run away from the castle through the secret exit below the well.
The only place they could run to and hide, was Devil's Town, the most damned and most terrible place in the whole wide world, where nobody has ever dared to step into before.
The young couple decided to get married in Devil's Town, followed by cavalry's most faithful warriors. Nevertheless, beautiful Simonid's father and the prince were not brave enough to step into Devil's Town. However, they made an agreement with the Devil himself to kill the brave knight Lazar.
During the wedding, the Devil appeared. At first, he froze the knight warriors and turned them into the stone statues, and then, he pointed the poisoned arrow straight to knights heart. At that very moment, beautiful Simonida jumped in front of Lazar and the poisoned arrow went through her breasts and shot the knight also.
The devil was deeply touched with the scene of wounded knight holding his dead bride in his arms. Shattered, Devil ran away. Even today, the cries of stoned warriors who mourn over their knight and his bride can be heard in Devil's Town.
Badly injured, knight took his dead bride into his arms, rode the horse and went to the lonely mountain. It was the only place where he could bury her in peace. Up high in the mountains, at the plateau between two mountain tops, the cavalry buried his bride. The place is called "Girl's Grave" ever since.
He was mourning after beautiful Simonida for days, together with the mountain. He was crying until the day when both him and the mountain ran out of tears. Since then, the mountain is called "Dry Mountain".
The knight has never forgotten the loss of his love and so he stayed on the mountain forever, as a monk. He built the little monastery where he lived in isolation for the rest of his life."
