Located in the rocky foothills of the Dinara Alps surrounding the capital city of Cetinje, the Lovcen National Park is the ideal place for visitors to get back to nature. The park encompasses the “Black Mountain” (from which Montenegro takes its name), which towers to a dramatic height of over 5,700 feet and helps create the unique habitats found in the park. At the second highest peak in the park you can visit the impressive Njegos Mausoleum where Montenegro’s most loved and famous poet Petar II Petrovic Njegoš was laid to rest. The most popular activities in the park include walking, scenic drives, hiking, and cross-country skiing in winter.
