Montenegro extreme activity holiday
Description of Montenegro extreme activity holiday
This Montenegro activity holiday doesn’t just give you tasters of activities. Instead, it’s a no-holds-barred, non-stop adventure. You’ll be zip lining and white water rafting, you’ll tackle via ferrata, quad biking and canyoning, and round it all off with horse riding. There’s wild swimming and hiking, too. For the best rafting, come in May, when the river is highest.
Your base for the week is at 1,520m altitude in the UNESCO-protected Durmitor National Park. This incredible landscape is ripe for exploration, and guests will find the activities are superb introductions to the mountains, plains and rivers. There’s minimal travel between activities, making the holiday easy and seamless.
You’ll stay at a camp with four self-catering apartments with WiFi and satellite television. You can cook, or head to the nearby town for restaurants, cafés and bars – a place to blow off steam after a day of adventuring. You’ll be welcomed on the first evening with a home-cooked group meal.
The team who run this trip for us are Montenegrin, and all the staff are local to the area. The holiday keeps money in the community, whether you’re eating a packed lunch made for you with local fruit, meats and cheeses, or finishing a glass of plum brandy at a traditional Montenegrin meal in the town: after all that adventure, you’ve earnt it.

Amazing! You won't regret making a booking with this operator and holidays can be tailor made to suit if you want to tweak the activities slightly. The Durmitor National Park is stunning. We didn't want the holiday to end! Read full reviewReviewed on 13 Jul 2024 by Ray Butler
A great trip, with a well-balanced mix of adrenaline activities and decent (if sometimes slightly rough around the edges) accommodation. There’s also often time in the afternoon for downtime, swimming in the Black Lake, biking etc. Stan and Goca are very welcoming and try to accommodate everything you need. Thanks for a good week.

Great trip and great people. The whole trip was well planned and thought out, the hosts were very accommodating and welcoming, they really looked after everyone and couldn’t have done more for us all, taking us to the stores, providing us with supplies, assisting with translation when needed and cooking some lovely meals!

Really enjoyed the hike around the Black Lakes, Rafting and Zip wire Read full reviewReviewed on 17 Aug 2017 by Gemma Gore
We arrived as guests and left feeling like family, we were taken care of as though we were lifelong friends. We would definitely go again such wonderful company and people who went the extra mile. We would class it as self catering plus due to little extras we were given through the week. Read full reviewResponsible Travel
Planet
We have Montenegrin heritage and are proud of our country & love showing it off to our guests. We love nature and along with the stunning Montenegrin coastline we have majestic mountains in Montenegro, and especially the UNESCO National park of Durmitor. We absolutely love and appreciate our camp which is surrounded by perfect nature & its scenic setting; which guests get to enjoy whilst on activities & relaxing. Along with pristine nature there is an abundance of great Adventure activities on offer, for all guests to take part in, and we hope all our guests have a relaxing, fun filled active holiday stay!Nearly all of our activities have the concept of Eco tourism and mostly all are deemed as not harmful to the environment. Indeed the Durmitor National Park is a UNESCO protected national park and considered an 'Air' spa for visitors!
We provide all our guests with a friendly welcome Traditional Montenegrin meal plus drinks on arrival of stay. We also provide lunches on all activity days; buying most supplies directly from the local farmers market; such as locally produced jams, preserves, berries, meats & cheeses!
Our camp is surrounded by green fields, mountains & forests and we shall be discarding wherever possible all rubbish for recycling. We shall also have our outdoor lights run on solar energy and energy saving bulbs. We also offer our guests free usage of mountain bikes which we shall encourage our guests to use; as Eco transport to get around!
Our Activity team leaders are all local from the area and we hope to show our guests the benefits of protecting our environment on all of our activities. Our Trekking team leaders are also part of the conservation of the Durmitor forest and they will be explaining all aspects of nature to our guests on activities!
People
We directly aim to create jobs and employ & empower local people in this Mountainous region, who are heavily dependent on some income from tourism. Locals in the Durmitor region generally live from tourism or farming and so it's a massive chunk of their income to be involved within the sector of tourism.We employ 6 team leaders and also have a staff for the day to day running of our camp. We are hoping that we shall be able to make a difference in the community by employing locals and they shall have a direct benefit of being employed and gaining an income from our weekly activity package stays.
We encourage all of our staying guests to explore Durmitor for themselves on free days and evening times, and hope they'll visit local restaurants, cafes and eateries in the town of Zabljak; which will economically help out other local business's.
Our first season was back in 2013 and we shall hopefully continue to be a success and we shall endeavor to include as much possible for local people to be employed and for income to be spent back into the camp and to stay with the community!
