Located in the southeast of Montenegro, Prokletije National Park is a huge expanse of wilderness that forms the border with Albania and Kosovo. Being so scenic and remote, this park is one of the best-kept secrets of Europe. The best way to discover the jagged peaks, valleys, and springs, is by hiking one of the many trails. And given the remoteness of this region, you’ll see very few people hiking here. In this video, we’ll show you 5 of the best things to do in Prokletije, including both short stops and longer hikes.
5. The Blue Eye & Ropojane Valley
Located in Ropojane Valley, the Blue Eye, or literally translated the “Eye of the Grashopper” (Oko Skakavice), is a turquoise mountain lake that was formed by a karst spring. It’s easy to get here from the Grlja waterfall.
4. Grlja Waterfall
The Grlja waterfall is located next to the parking lot just before entering the Ropojana Valley walking trail. It’s powered by water from the Blue Eye and fresh water from the surrounding mountains.
3. Kusije Waterfall
From the Grlja Waterfall, you can follow a 1.8 km or 1.1 mile trail that leads to the Kusije Waterfall. Surrounded by a lush forest, nature is at its best here.
2. Ali Pasha’s Springs
Located right outside of Gusinje, Ali Pasha’s Springs are numerous pools that join together into one big stream flow.
1. Volušnica-TalIjanka-Popadija trail
If you only have time for one hike in the Prokletije Mountains, head to the Grebaje Valley. From here, you have numerous trail options and Volušnica is the most scenic one.
