Introducing Northern Montenegro

Northern Montenegro is best known for the dramatically and magnificently mountainous Durmitor National Park, which transforms into the country's premier ski resort in winter. Travellers with spiritual tendencies will appreciate Ostrog Monastery, which rests precariously on a cliff face 900m above the Zeta valley. Pilgrims regularly make the long uphill journey to pray over the bones of Archbishop Vasilije Jovanovic (who fled here from the Turks in 1665) in the hope of curing illness and other woes.
