Grounding on Danube
On Oct 30, 2025, the 'Viking LIf' ran aground on the Danube River near the village of Garla Mare. The river cruise ship had departed from Turnu Magurele en route to Vienna with 180 passengers and 53 crew on board, when it stranded on a sandbank. At that point, the Danube’s flow in the area had dropped to roughly 2,600 cubic meters per second, a full thousand below normal for this time of year, leaving exposed patches of sand that caught the vessel. There were no reports of injuries, damage or pollution. Authorities arrived soon after, setting up coordination calls with the crew and ensuring passengers had water and food brought from ashore. The ship remained stuck until the morning of Oct 31, when the water level had risen enough to allow it to be refloated. The vessel then continued its voyage and berthed in Vidin at noon. On Nov 2 it arrived at Belgrade. Navigation in the grounding area has since been declared to be normal, though several barges and a ferry service near Bechet also saw temporary disruptions due to the same low water levels.
