7 Day Super-Active Holiday in Montenegro

“A fabulous week of wonderful adventures in a beautiful country with a great guide, Nenad! Camp Grab and the activities there were fabulous, dinner at Tanya’s was amazing, canyoning was great and Žabjlak and Durmitor [was] also amazing. We will definitely return to Montenegro, especially now that we know about some wonderful hidden gems!” Emma Yarwood, July 2024

2025 departure dates: any Sunday, May-September 

If chilling by a pool is your idea of peak boredom, this might be the holiday you’re looking for! We pack five different activities into one action-packed week: canyoning, kayaking, mountain biking, rafting and hiking. Every single day we will do something different, and every day will be spent in the amazing ambience of some of the most beautiful places in Montenegro, from the slopes of Rumija mountain to Lake Skadar, Lukavica Mountain, the Tara Canyon and Durmitor National Park.

This is a super active adventure holiday, but don’t worry! You should be physically prepared at times, but the grade of difficulty for each activity is about “moderate” on average, and there is an option to tune the difficulty of all these activities to the level of your abilities.

NB – our recommended minimum age for this holiday is 14 – but we can make exceptions for exceptional kids! Please don’t hesitate to check with us if you think your kids fall into this category! Click here to read more about our activity levels.

Day 1 – Arrival

We will make our way to Lake Skadar National Park, where you will experience the very best of Montenegrin national cuisine that evening at our friend Tanja’s – you’ll soon know why this place is one of the highlights for our guests! The amazing homegrown and homemade food and drinks, combined with traditional Montenegrin hospitality in a beautiful rural setting are one of the best ways to welcome our visitors. Overnight in Virpazar.

Day 2 – Kayaking

Undiscovered Montenegro has created six kayaking routes to show the very best of this fabulous lake. Our most popular tour sets off from Virpazar, and takes in the former island prison of Grmožur, as well as visits to nearby freshwater beaches. A little further on is the gorgeous Morača delta, with rope swings and picnic spots, where there is even a monastery visit possible for those interested. Packed lunch included. No paddling experience is required – your guide is a qualified kayak instructor, so chat through the variables with them to see what tour suits your group best!

Overnight in Virpazar.

Day 3 – Canyoning

Hidden mountain canyons are a real natural treasure of Montenegro. One of the most beautiful is Medjurec Canyon, situated in the pocket of the impressive Rumija Mountain that divides Lake Skadar from the sea. The length of the canyon is about 2.5 kilometres, but it’s not that easy to pass through it, as the tour requires about 4 hours of walking, climbing and jumping from high rocks into the crystal clear water. Passing through the canyon also requires the use of ropes and climbing equipment – but don’t worry if you’ve never done this before! Our guides are used to the loopy grins on beginners’ faces as they succumb to canyoning addiction! After the canyoning is done we will visit the ruins of the Old Town of Bar, as one of the biggest and most important fortified settlements from Montenegro’s past. There we’ll also taste some of the local grilled delicacies and good old-fashioned types of sweets!

Day 4 – Free Day and Transfer to Lukavica

After two active days, it’s time for a change of pace – as we transfer up to the unexplored beauty and wilderness of Lukavica! There’s a beautiful hike on offer, or you can chill in some of the most splendidly isolated and beautiful locations Montenegro has to offer, whilst staying in the unique Moj San rondavel. Breakfast and dinner for this day are provided. Overnight in Lukavica.

Day 5 – Mountain biking

Today, we spending an unforgettable day cycling in one of the most remote, appealing mountain pastures in all of Montenegro – and it’s paradise for bike lovers! At Lukavica plateau you will find total silence and isolation. We’re unlikely to see other tourists, just shepherds during the summer season and local nature lovers. Using ebikes if available and otherwise regular mountain bikes, we will take a loop around Borovnik mountain, passing below the twin peaks of Žurimovi. If the group is ready for an extra challenge, we can extend the tour, exploring the roads to the ‘katun’ villages and on to the sapphire blue Kapetanovo Lake formed by glaciers. Once back at Moj San, we will transfer to Camp Grab near the border with Bosnia ready for our rafting adventure.

Day 6 – White-water rafting

The Tara Canyon is the deepest in the whole of Europe (second deepest in the world, just after Grand Canyon in Colorado) – the highest point above the canyon floor is 1,331 metres over your head! Because of its beauty, clear water and unspoiled nature, the Tara Canyon deservedly boasts UNESCO World Natural Heritage status. The grade 3-5 rapids (depending on the season) will provide you with a thrill you won’t forget in a hurry! Tour duration: 2-3 hours. Please note that groups of fewer than 6 should expect to join another rafting group. Overnight at Camp Grab, group dinner.

Day 7 – Hiking in Durmitor National Park

The last adventure is reserved for something really special – Durmitor National Park. We will hike to Prutaš, the 9th highest peak of this mountain range (2,394m), enjoying spectacular views on our way. Situated at the most southern part of Durmitor Mountain it gives probably the best view of the group of highest peaks and the most beautiful valley in the area. Made from colourful vertical layers, it’s the most special and, in the opinion of most people who climbed it, the most beautiful peak in the group of Durmitor’s 47 peaks over 2,000 metres.

On the way back through the amazing Piva Plateau, we will stop to visit a medieval necropolis of tombstones called stećci, a great place to speak about the history of the ex-Yugoslav people. After taking photos of the great landscape and Piva Lake from above, we’ll head to Plužine to celebrate the end of the program. Overnight Plužine.

Day 8 – Return to Podgorica

Prices include all accommodation, transfers, meals and guided excursions. Airport transfers not included.

This is a group holiday that can also be tailor-made on request. Maximum Group size of 8.
