Relax on the shores of Lake Piva by kayaking, fishing or swimming in the largest drinking water reserve in the Balkans. Walk on the slopes of Durmitor mountain to discover the real life in villages. Get along the Tara riverside, get back to the camp and have fun swimming on the lakeside.

Halfway to Prijevor, at 1,280 meters above sea level, we will visit a landscaped viewpoint (about 400 m from the road through the forest), which offers an excellent view of the Skakavac waterfall. We continue our drive towards Prijevor, the starting point for our trekking. Only by trekking, you can reach this incredible heart-shaped lake, that symbolizes love. Trnovačko Lake is located in the far northwest of Montenegro, near the border with BiH. Besides the Black Lake on Durmitor, this is one of the most beautiful lakes in Montenegro.
