This mountain wreathe, for which there are some announcements that it will be proclaimed for the National Park, is one of the less visited wreathes, but at the same time on of the most intriguing parts of Montenegro. This massif because of its poor transience today is a challenge for all those who wish to try out themselves in mountaineering, but what is more important, for all those who are interested in the botanic diversity of this area. Alpine landscape, small cattle breeding lodgments, and numerous small lakes are recognizable motifs of this area.

Cetinje – is a real pearl of Montenegrin culture and history. For a complete pleasure and true meeting of Montenegro you would have to dedicate several days to this town.

With its beauty stands out Cetinje monastery, which preserves some of the greatest Christian relics – such as the hand of St. Jovan the baptizer. Monastery treasury is enriched by the gifts of other civilizations to Montenegrin rulers, among which there are some which come from Arabia.
