Stop At: Bobotov Kuk, Zabljak, Durmitor National Park, Zabljak Municipality Montenegro
Trip facts: track length: 12 km, max altitude: 2523 m, weight: medium, availability: all year around.
This hiking mountain tour starts from the bend Sedlo, towards the north, with a mild climb. Already at the start we will enjoy the beauty of the landscape, we will pass grassy, meadow trails, and sharp rocky roads. We will stretch out underneath the rocks, after which we will enter the beautiful valley of "Surutka" from where it is looked up the figure of our goal - Bobotov kuk. On the way to the highest peak we will find the wells and we will be refreshed with drinking mountain water. Bobotov Kuk together with peaks ‘’No Name’’ Peak (2487 m) and ‘’Damsel’’ (Soa, 2440 m) make the highest rocky ridge of Durmitor called Soa Heavenly, which means "The Underlay of the Sky".
We will enjoy the view of the Škrčka lakes, which are called "mountain eyes" with the rest of the Durmitor lake group (a total of 18 glacier lakes). From the peaks of Durmitor there is a wonderful view in all directions, which you will definitely permeate with great photos!

The final climb is technically more demanding (the last 20 minutes of climb to the top), rocky and requires caution, however: the track has enough space to walk in its entire course, it is secured and has space for a safe step so it is not risky and technically demanding.
Note: The tour lasts 5 - 6 hours + time for transfer depending on the city of your accommodation.

In the end, we didn't do this hike, but climbed Prutas Peak which is also in Durmitor, and next to Bobotov kuk. We did this because we were told by various people that this option would be slightly shorter (took us 5hrs hiking) but the views from the top (of Bobtov kuk, and more) would be more spectacular. Also, it seems that Bobotov kuk is now the more popular of the two since it attracts more hikers just because it is the highest mountain in Durmitor. The travel company, Monte Mare, had no problem with the change and the hike was great. Highly recommended. Guide and driver were great.LyndsayM_World
