Dracevica is a village in the southern mountains of the municipality of Demir Kapija. It was originally between Demir Kapija and Besvica, but after an incident with the Turkish, the villagers moved into the mountain. After the village of Strmasevo was destroyed by the Bulgarian forces during World War I, many of its people also moved to Dracevica. Today, it is merely a weekend getaway for many people and some grow their grapes in this village. It is elevated at 700 m. The hike to get there is long, but the municipality operates a mountain hut in this village free of charge. They often go there, and the forestry company operates in that area for wood supply.
