Ostrog Monastery

A monastery. Built into a cliff. 900 meters above the valley below. Few places on Earth combine manmade architecture and natural beauty in such a striking way. Take the long, slithering road up to the foot of Ostrog. Then, be prepared for a deep thigh burn with all the ensuing steps.

St John Fortress

This stunning sunrise hike takes you up from the town of Kotor, tucked serenely into a bay on the Montenegro coast, to the ruins of St. Ivan's Fortress. Along the way, you'll get amazing views of ramparts, towers, the bay and town below...and, cats. Lots of cats.
