Officially, our tour begins with a ride along the canyon of Moraca.
Moraca River is considered as one of the symbols of Podgorica, and it is the biggest river that flows through the city. It is featured on some flags and country symbols. Generally, the river flows southwards for some 113 km (70 mi), before entering into Lake Skadar.
Right after we pass Moraca Canyon we are coming to Monastery Moraca, which was built in XIII century. You will notice that this sacral place is surrounded like a medieval fortress. According to one legend, this Monastery was made of special yellow stone, which is found in the area very far from the place where the monastery actually is.
We continue our drive to the place you won’t forget, National Park Biogradska Gora.
This is one of the last three virgin forests in Europe, and if we take a step further deeper into the depths of the mountain, we will find the most beautiful, the emerald colors of the beautiful Biograd Lake. In the clear lake water, all the beauty of the ancient forest is reflected, giving a blue-green color to almost transparent water, especially on the northern part of the coast, which is also called the Capricorn side. This scene of nature will state you that you want to be trapped in the harmony of this nature.
After this magnificent place, we continue our drive through the valley of Tara river, to Zabljak city, the center of National Park Durmitor.
Tara river, the deepest canyon in Europe, will introduce unspoiled nature and a masterpiece of bridge building – grandiose bridge Djurdjevica Tara, perched on a canyon over 150 feet deep, which offers a unique view of the Tara River Canyon and leaves no one indifferent.
During WWII a part of the bridge was destroyed to slow the progress of the invaders. The bridge was reconstructed and re-operational in 1946.
Note: We are suggesting you a zip-line as the additional activity. This is a great opportunity to encounter the world’s second deepest canyon with Montenegro’s longest and best zip line.
Near the bridge is Monastery Dobrilovina which we will visit as one of the ‘must see spots’ in this area.
