Getting to Kolasin

A few years ago it would have taken you almost 4 hours from the coastal areas along the small windy village roads. Today, there is a new high way, with so many tunnels and 3 lanes in some places. This makes the travel to Kolasin about 1,5 hours drive in the summer months. Weather depending in the winter. So you can be on the coast swimming and in the snow skiing on the same day.

Kolasin in the Winter

Kolasin is the hidden ski gem in Europe. This is where all the activity is during the winter months in Montenegro. With breathtaking scenery and reasonably priced ski adventures. It is an authentic little town with a cozy atmosphere and the locals are very friendly.

Kolasin Summers

What many have not experienced, is the beauty the North of the country has to offer when it is not snowing. The lush green amongst the tall trees, the town is still alive in the summer months with lots to do.

The mist rolls over the hills in the early mornings, offering those fresh summer chills you only find in the hillsides of Kolasin in Montenegro during the summer months. Away from the humidity and heat along the coasts. It is a scenic drive on the narrow roads in and around the town. With small farms, old village homes and the smell of fresh country air following you everywhere.

A contrast to the coastal vegetation, here it is mountains and tall trees. With patches of grass for the few cattle to graze. It is especially spectacular in mid to end October when the autumn colors of orange, yellow, reds and green are everywhere.
