Description of Montenegro walking holiday
Exploring on foot is the perfect way to discover the diverse landscapes of Montenegro, and this walking holiday leads you along mountain trails, through remote valleys and down to lakeside towns.
Roughly the same size as Northern Ireland, Montenegro makes up for its diminutive footprint with epic scenery. Home to the deepest canyon in Europe – the 1,300m Tara Canyon – wild and rugged mountains and a picturesque coastline, Montenegro also boasts an impressive history. It was the only country in this region to fend off the advances of the Ottoman Empire, and retains a strong sense of culture and national identity.
Montenegro is emerging as an exciting destination for active holidays, but is still something of a European best kept secret. Walking here is a great way to get into its undeveloped interior, and you’ll often have the trail to yourself without seeing another soul. Hike up to abandoned fortresses, discover medieval towns and stay overnight in quiet villages and mountain cabins, gaining an insight into traditional life here, little changed in decades. In between walking, take a boat ride along a rural canal, visit a honey farmer and dine on fresh fish and local wine in Montenegro’s former capital Cetinje.

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
There are two primary views of Montenegro, seaside and mountaintop. Those mountaintop views are stunning and even sweeter after accomplishing the hike up the mountainside to see them. We would not have experienced Montenegro in such a hands-on fashion without the tour operator. The staff was very friendly and professional. Marko, our guide, helped us navigate the trails successfully and arranged for a variety of wonderful, local experiences. Vlatkos, our driver, expertly navigated the tight winding roads that we would never have attempted on our own. Finally, going in a small group was very enjoyable from the encouragement on the trails to the comradery at the supper table. Take this trip. You won’t regret it.
2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
Consider both distance and elevation changes when training for your trip. We found hiking boots and hiking poles to be helpful.
3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
Yes. Often, we were in private, family-run accommodations in remote areas. When you get to have conversations with the locals you understand better the impact that the tour is having. In particular, the eco-lodges were very eco-friendly.
4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
We got good value for our investment. Others in our group indicated the operator provided a high standard and we found that to be true.
Responsible Travel
As the pioneers of responsible tourism, we've screened this (and every) holiday so that you can travel knowing we've worked to maximise the benefits of your holiday to local people and places, and minimise any negative impacts.
Planet
We have a strict environmental policy to make sure that the environments we visit are not damaged or spoilt in any way. All our guides are trained to uphold this policy and all clients are fully briefed on appropriate/responsible behaviour whilst in wilderness areas. Our “Leave No Trace” ethic is applied to all trips in all regions, and as tour operators is something we are careful to promote.This trip is a multi-activity trip involving hiking, white-water rafting, cycling and kayaking around the beautiful Montenegran coastline. By utilising pedal-power, travelling on foot and a non-motorised modes of transport this is certainly a great option for the environmentally minded traveller, whilst keeping travellers fit and active! Portions of this trip travel through National Parks - again, by encouring low impact tourism in these areas it allows the designated parklands to generate revenue and ensure they are kept 'unspoilt' for generations to come.
This is done by funding projects across the world that will reduce greenhouse gases on your behalf through sustainable energy or rainforest restoration.
People
In Montenegro we use local ground handlers who in turn book locally run hotels, providing employment for a number of members of staff and support families. The ground handlers also use local drivers and camp staff, and ensure that all supplies are purchased locally for the journey. This means that all the operational costs go directly into the local economy, and benefit the local community.In each area we employ and develop close relationships with drivers, staff and guides. We feel the interaction between our friends and our clients offers both parties a valuable understanding between cultures. This is of particular importance in areas where there are limited employment opportunities - by working with local people and communities we are able to extend tourism in Montenegro away from the more commercial centres and into the more remote regions.
We also support several NGOs around the world such as the Hope Foundation, A-Cet and Adopt-A-Minefield, which are all carefully selected to improve the standard of living for the communities we visit. In 2009 we also launched our own charitable foundation which allows us to channel profits from the trips and fundraising events, directly into community projects in the countries we visit. Details of current projects and scholarships supported by the foundation are available on request.
