What does this mean?

It has been protected since 1859.

It means that it's under protection as a natural monument or a national monument or whatever. I'm not sure how to rephrase it to make it clear.

Not a mountain[edit]

The peak (what you would call BPX) needs to be a minimum of 1,000 metres above sea level to be classed as mountainous, apart from that, I have no quarrels with the other information! Celtmist 14-12-05 ...sorry, 1,000 feet, maybe 600 metres - I mixed it slightly, but I still think 511 metres might just be below mountain level. Still, I accept its name is MOUNT Avala. The Celt 17-12-05

Anything over 500m is considered a mountain.-- Krytan talk 19:39, 29 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Kosmaj - a Belgrade mountain?[edit]

I read today in the article: nicknamed one of two "Belgrade mountains" (the other one being the mountain of Kosmaj).

Personally, I've never heared such saying. The border between Sumadija and Belgrade-area lays behind the Avala (stated by Cvijic, Erdeljanovic and others). Kosmaj is belonging - geographically and ethnologically - to Sumadija, not Belgrade. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Luzzifer (talk • contribs) 16:26, 28 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Administrative borders of Belgrade were not defined by Cvijic, Erdeljanovic etc. but by politicians and these borders include Kosmaj as well.--Avala (talk) 20:47, 28 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The mere word "nicknamed" implies it's not official, just something "cool" to say - "we have 2 mountains in Belgrade", when they are actually far out on the edge of city. Maybe it should be rephrased into something like "one of two mountains in the Belgrade city teritory". I believe it's true, though it would be way better if you can find a map marked with both city limits and mountain names. Messlo (talk) 23:32, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Tadic statement[edit]

"According to Serbian president Boris Tadic, Avala is the highest and the most beautiful mountain in Serbia!" I may be seriously falling behind on following the news but Citation needed on this one. Short Google search failed to produce this statement. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 147.91.1.45 (talk) 10:34, 1 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This is highly irregular to post here!!! This ambiguous statement of Tadic shoul be erased. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.148.79.215 (talk) 22:38, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
