In subfreezing snowy weather, refugees walk the unofficial refugee route, near Miratovac, Serbia, January 2016. During the winter of 2016 entry into the Balkans was limited to refugees from Afghanistan, Iraq, and Syria. The typical journey went like this: flee their home country, take a perilous raft ride from Turkey to Greece, and then move onward through foreign lands in search of a peaceful home. The Balkan borders closed to all refugees in March 2016.
