Specific events which are organized under the name wine races, wine marathon or quick stroll through vineyards represent a type of activities which can be associated to modern wine tourism. Even though wine races are very popular in the most famous wine regions, in Serbia they are being organized in only two wine regions in last few years. The paper analyzes the existing wine races in Serbia, as a form of tourist product and their impact on the development of wine tourism in the regions they are being organized. The goal of this paper is a comparative analysis of wine races at Palić and in Aleksandrovac, based on the preset categories and parameters. The obtained results show towards the positive characteristcs and good practice, but also unused potential of this activity. The originality of the paper is reflected in the topic of wine races, which has not been investigated in the field of tourism until now.

Results indicate that increasing trends of precipitation for the selected station can be observed but these trends were not statistically significant according to MK test. Then again, MK test has shown that only on Palić station during autumn precipitations have statistically significant increase during the observed period with a p value of 0.0441 at the significant level p=0.005.

This paper discusses the attitudes of the local population towards the impact of tourism on the tourist destination Palić. By researching the role and the importance of the local population in the process of tourism development, what is presented is the current situation, positive and negative influences as well as the possibilities of improving tourism. The aim of this paper is to determine the impact of tourism on destination Palić observed through the attitudes, involvement, and the contribution of the local population. A sample of 100 adults was surveyed with 18 questions taken from previous similar surveys. The good internal reliability of the questionnaire was determined by using Cronbach's alpha. It was found that the local population of Palić generally highly evaluates the impact of tourism and recognizes its positive impact on the local development. Women were stricter in assessing the impact of tourism, while the assessment of respondents of different ages did not differ significantly. The importance of tourism for the local development is more recognized by those who are engaged in it. However, the real impact of all three factors (gender, age, and engagement in tourism) was small.
