About Lovćen National Park
Lovćen, a national park since 1952, is in the tourist board’s words the heart of Montenegro’s identity. Its 6,220 hectares rise from 939 to 1,749 metres, topped by Štirovnik and Jezerski vrh, where Njegoš rests in his mausoleum with views over the Bay of Kotor. Trails for hiking and biking wind through the park, there is a zipline, and at Ivanova Korita, about ten kilometres from Cetinje, an adventure park and visitor centre. Stop in Njeguši for its beech-smoked pršut. Drive up from Cetinje, or come by the Kotor Cable Car.
