Durmitor National Park

We spent 4 days exploring different parts of Durmitor National Park and wished i had another week! Incredible views, swimming spots and hikes! There are activities that are more touristy or ways to get more out there into the wilderness. there is everything! Glacial swimming, Mountains, hiking and local food. If visiting id recommend hiring a car to get to all the best spots to avoid the large tourist traps.

This national park is huge and stunning, we would recommend 3 -4 days there. Top things to do include Tara river rafting (seasonal easy level in october when we went), curavac viewpoint hike (easy), black lake hike (easy), bobotuv kuk hike (hard - this is quite a dangerous in sections) and durmitor ring scenic drive. There’s also a bunch of additional hikes, horse riding and other sports. It’s 5 euros to enter the park each day.

Amazing views wherever you go. Parking near the black lake was 3 euros per hour but no entrance fee today for some reason.

The park is beautiful. I entered near the Black Lake. Admission was 5€. There is a fee for parking, but I didn't drive, so I'm not sure. I used the toilet/WC before hiking. Please be warned that these are not traditional toilets, but the type that you must squat over. There was no toilet paper, so I used my own that I carried in my backpack. There were a lot of flies, not only in the WC but also all over the trails swarming on me. On the hiking trails, there are multiple areas where there are fallen trees which need to be cut and moved. Apparently this has been this way for a long time, since there are clear paths where people have walked around. As the trail goes higher and further, the waypoint markings become less clear. It helps to use a navigation app to find your way. Overall the park is nice, but depending what facilities are used or activies done, you might have a different experience. Overall it's worth a visit.

We have visited the lake twice. First time on bikes, second time - by foot. Really charming place. We also rented a boat for 10 euro. Recommend that, really good experience.

I am sure that the park is 100% beautiful inside, but there is one significant nuance that is not specified anywhere. If you arrived by car and left it 500 m from the entrance to the park (just on the side of the road), then when you return back you will see local businessmen with badges.who have already counted your parking (on an UNMARKED curb) at a rate of 3€/hour!!! So be careful!

Beautiful scenery, looks tasty of birdlife, lots of trails so I'd advise using an app like locus map to stay on the right track. Parking is extortionate unfortunately so if you're brave enough, try parking just before the long winding road down to the lake

Durmitor is the most beautiful mountain in Montenegro. During summer there are many hiking places. Some of the peaks are around 2500m high. There are also 18 lakes in which you can swim. Landscapes are mesmerising, and food is delicious!
