Itinerary After The Fact - Montenegro, Looking Back

Montenegro was part of a Western Balkans drive - that also included Slovenia, Croatia, and parts of Bosnia. We passed through part of Serbia.

For Montenegro, we started at Dubrovnik, south to Cavtat, Croatia; then in Montenegro: Zelenika and Kamentari, going around the large fjord: Risan and Perasi, then Kotor, the destination. Rather than take the supposedly vertical S-curve route up to the old capital of Cetinje, we went around the coast to Budva; and north to Cetinje. From Cetinje, to the old cliff monastery at Ostrog (impossibly high, and set in the cliff itself), then cross-country and down through mountains through Bosnia and part of Serbia to Croatia. Six checkpoints in one day.

Links, posts, archives

We do not link directly to third-party sites because of concerns for copyright, see www.bitlaw.com.

Copyright is falling into the Midas Syndrome - everybody so busy turning everything into their exclusive property, like Midas. Find a retelling at www.mythweb.com/teachers/why/basics/midas. He turned everything he touched into gold, until finally he had nothing to eat. Even the fries gilded.

So go we.

Posts: In the chronological order of the trip, from arrival to departure, not according to actual date posted here. So visit any archives - they complete the trip.
