Route Summary:

After arrival at Tivat Airport, we take a short transfer to the base of the Kotor Cable Car and ride up to 1,350 metres. At the top we’ll have brunch and take in views over the Adriatic coast and Bay of Kotor.
From there, we drive north through central Montenegro to the alpine town of Kolašin where our hotel is.
In the late afternoon we head out for a short warm-up ride on gravel tracks in the foothills around town. It’s a solid first spin with enough climbing to get the legs working and make final adjustments before the main stages begin.

Route Summary:

Today’s queen stage takes us to the Štavna Plateau in Komovi Regional Park, with panoramic views across four distinct mountain ranges. From the plateau we look directly onto the three peaks of Komovi, the rugged Prokletije (also known as the Accursed Mountains and considered the most remote mountain area in the Balkans), the rolling mass of Bjelasica where we’ll finish the following day, and the Kuči mountains to the south. The altitude, exposure, and long gravel ascents make this a physically demanding day.

Route Summary:

We tackle our only steep climb soon after leaving the hotel and, within an hour, enter Biogradska Gora National Park, the smallest of Montenegro’s five national parks.
Biogradska Gora is renowned for protecting one of Europe’s last remaining primeval (virgin) forests and is recognised as part of the UNESCO World Network of Biosphere Reserves. The landscape here combines mountain ridges, glacial lakes, and dense temperate forest, offering a distinct contrast to the more exposed highland terrain of the previous day.
Leaving the park, we head toward Mojkovac, located at around 1,000 metres above sea level in the foothills of Bjelasica and Sinjavina.

Route Summary:

Our final ride brings us across the elevated plain stretching from Sinjajevina Mountain to the Durmitor massif, finishing in the town of Žabljak.
This region forms the second-largest mountainous grazing land in Europe, covering over 1,000 km² of limestone highland between 1,600 and 2,500 metres above sea level. It is a landscape shaped by both geology and centuries of pastoralism, resulting in a unique biodiversity that has co-evolved with traditional grazing practices. Its ecological and cultural importance is recognised through multiple Natural and Cultural protected areas.
At 75 km with 1,720 metres of climbing, this is a long and challenging final stage. Although 50% off-road, the altitude, scale of the terrain, and accumulated fatigue make it a challenging conclusion to the tour.
