Žabljak – National Park Durmitor – Black lake – Đurđevića Tara Bridge
Žabljak is located at 1456 m above sea level and it is the highest town in the Balkans. This small town in the north of Montenegro, located in the very center of the Durmitor mountain (the highest peak of 2,523 m – Bobotov kuk), surrounded by 23 mountain peaks of over 2200 meters and 18 lakes called ”mountain eyes” is the most desirable destination for winter tourism. The abundance of natural beauty, mountain peaks, various plants and the vicinity of the deepest canyon in Europe – the Tara canyon, attracts an increasing number of tourists during the summer, too. There are many reasons to visit this town.
Durmitor is a mountain and national park in Montenegro. It is believed that the name Durmitor originates from the Celtic word which means “a mountain full of water”. The landscapes of Durmitor, by their beauty and integrity, are rare and authentic work of nature, declared the National Park in 1952.
The main tourist attraction of the Durmitor region is the Black Lake, the largest and most famous of the 18 glacier lakes on the mountain.
Special beauty contributes to the clear rivers with magnificent canyon valleys. Particularly impresses the Tara River – tear of Europe, both with the beauty and movement of its waters, as well as the depth and landscape of the canyon (the second deepest in the world), making it one of the most beautiful in the world. Tara is known worldwide for active and adventurous tourism, because it is one of the best rafting rivers in the world.
The famous attraction of the Tara canyon is the “Đurđevića Tara” bridge, 170 meters high, 350 m long, built in 1937.
