Today, it is dotted with 4 and 5 star hotels, offering supreme services for leisure or active vacation.

    National Park Lovćen

    National Park Lovćen is located on a rocky region of the Dinara Alps. The slopes of Mountain Lovćen steeply rise from the coastal region of Budva and the western part of Cetinje. “Black Mountain,” after which Montenegro got its name, rises to 1749 meters of altitude. Park covers 6220 acres. The part is abundant in flora and fauna, housing nine different habitats at a very small space. The abundance of life is result of extreme altitudes and influence of two climate zones: Mediterranean and Continental.

    The Park also is a site of a mausoleum to the Montenegrin ruler and a poet, Petar II Petrović Njegoš, an imposing resting place, 461 steps up the hill.
