AN AMAZING SLOW FOOD TOUR THROUGH NORTHERN MONTENEGRO
Traveling through northern Montenegro in autumn is a magical experience. The vast forests in the Prokletije and Bjelasica national parks show a vibrant palette of yellow, orange and red colors. It is the season of making ’rakija’, picking mushrooms, collecting herbs and preparing juice from raspberries, elderflowers and roses. Autumn is also a perfect period […]
GRAHOVO – PAST AND FUTURE
Did you know that it is much easier to travel from Podgorica to the Bay of Kotor when you take the road via Nikšić and then down to Morinj? It is an excellent highway that passes through untouched nature, winding over the Grahovac plateau at an altitude of around 1000 meters, then across Grahovsko Polje […]
THE FORGOTTEN FORTRESS OF KOSMAČ
Have you ever thought about visiting the old Austro-Hungarian fortresses in Montenegro? Many of these fortresses are located along the Montenegrin coast, especially in the area of the Bay of Kotor and around Budva. Most of these fortifications, built between 1838 and 1914, are abandoned and dilapidated, and only some of them are preserved and […]
PLAV AND GUSINJE – GATEWAYS TO PROKLETIJE NATIONAL PARK
It has been a long time since we have visited the Prokletije National Park. It is not easy to reach this region in the far northeast of Montenegro, due to roadworks on various sections. But there is a good solution: if you take the Kelmend road through Albania, you will arrive within two hours, if […]
A WALK ALONG THE PROMENADE OF BAR

Although it does not have the characteristic beauty of a coastal town, the city offers many advantages. First of all, Bar is a safe city that is ’alive’ all year round. It […]
PRČANJ – WALKING TOUR TO THE OLD PARISH CHURCH
Together with the villages of Muo and Stoliv, Prčanj is located on the northeastern slope of the Vrmac peninsula. In the Middle Ages, noble families from Kotor had their own estates with vineyards and olive groves in this area. While the noblemen built summer houses on the coast, rural settlements were formed on the slopes […]
CETINJE – WALKING TOUR TO ORLOV KRŠ
If you want to make a nice walk in Cetinje, don’t miss Orlov Krš (in translation: Eagle’s Rock)! This historical place and beautiful viewpoint is often forgotten by tourists who visit the old royal capital of Cetinje, but it is absolutely worthwhile. What do you know about Cetinje? Well, Cetinje can be considered the cradle […]
SOCIALIST-ERA ARCHITECTURE IN PODGORICA
It is true, Podgorica doesn’t have the best reputation as a city destination in Europe. And a lot of blogs about the best things to do in Podgorica mostly describe day trips or activities out of the city. But Podgorica is an interesting city to explore. Even if you have just a few hours to spend, it […]
GORICA HILL – PODGORICA’S LUNGS
One of the places I like most in Podgorica is Gorica Forest Park or Gorica Hill, located only a few minutes’ walk from the center of the city. It is a favorite recreational site for locals and tourists, a great getaway from the summer heat, a place where you can walk in the shade of […]
