Of the many mountain lakes in Montenegro, Lake Hrid stands out for its beauty and uniqueness. It is located in the northern part of the Prokletije National Park, at an altitude of 1970 m, which makes it one of the highest lakes in Montenegro. It is surrounded by a dense coniferous forest behind which the granite rocks ("cliffs") of the Bogićevica mountain rise to the southeast. The Hrid lake is not large and can be visited in about thirty minutes. In places where there is no path, it is necessary to jump over fallen trees or cross large rocks. The lake is not too deep either, the greatest depth does not exceed a few meters (in the period when it is not under a thick layer of melted snow).

The scenes and atmosphere around the lake itself quickly make any effort quickly forgotten.
