Montenegro’s mountains for snowshoeing
4 of the sixteen subjects in the atlas. Ordered as the atlas orders them — the ranked tier first, then tallest.
No. 9 · Summit · 2,313 m
Savin Kuk
Snow on 72% of January days
Žabljak’s ski mountain and a straightforward summer summit: the chairlifts take the first 700 m of ascent in winter, and in summer the walk up from Black Lake is the standard half-day from the town.
No. 10 · Summit · 2,403 m
Hajla
Snow on 67% of January days
The mountain above Rožaje, on the Kosovo border, with a long grassy ridge and a sharp drop on its northern side.
Ski area · 2,035 m
Kolašin 1600
Snow on 62% of January days
Montenegro’s main ski area, on the Bjelasica slopes above Kolašin, with a gondola up from the valley and the country’s most reliable lift-served snow.
Ski area · 1,750 m
Kolašin 1450
Snow on 62% of January days
The older and smaller of the two Kolašin areas, on the same Bjelasica flank, with gentler terrain and a shorter lift system.
