Description

Durmitor National Park is home to the section of the Dinaric Alps that passes through northwest Montenegro. Durmitor is a rugged yet gorgeous national park. Depending on the season, you could spend your time skiing down snowy slopes or hiking them up. There are 48 different peaks that reach over 2,000 meters which means you are spoiled for choice when it comes to hiking opportunities. Its highest peak, Bobotov Kuk, reaches a height of 2,523 meters. To the east, the Durmitor opens to a 1,500 m (4,921 ft) high plateau, called Jezerska Površ (Plateau of Lakes). The Sinjavina mountain is located to the east of the Jezerska Površ plateau. The Durmitor is for the most part located in the Žabljak municipality. The massif gives its name to the national park that comprises it, which was added to the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites in 1980. With the Tara River Canyon, one of the Balkans’ most dramatic spots also in the park, you couldn’t ask for a better place to go rafting as you peer up to the awe-inspiring natural world around you.
