Durmitor National Park – Just a Walk in the Park

The main town in Durmitor is Zabljak.

Here I park up and take a walk for 3 hours.

Summer walks
There are a number of marked walks from a location close to town.

I take a walk around the Black lake, the easiest walk. There are a number of other walks which can be negotiated with the aid of a map.

Definitely the high point of the trip so far.

Denoted by the deepest canyon in Europe at 1.3km. The park is intersected by the river Tara and has some scenery and nature to behold.

Enjoy the silence
The air here is lush with the smell of Scot’s pines earthy forest smells.

Njegos, or king Njegos to his friends. Perched himself at top the mountain to look down upon the whole of Montenegro in legacy.

Hard-Drive
Wing mirrors be warned, this is a single lane duel for most of the way. Added hazards included boulders mountain goats, sun (in eyes).

Took a Turkish Coffee at the restaurant at the summit. Seated looking West, the views are great and the coffee wasn’t bad either.

The Mausoleum itself costs €2 to get in.
