Cycling day trip from Kotor to Cetinje

Cycling from Kotor to Cetinje is truly an adventure! You’ll start down at sea level in the stunning bay town of Kotor, famous for its medieval old town and towering limestone cliffs. Get ready, because you’ll be climbing—a lot. This route is around 40 km with a huge ascent of over 2,500 meters, so your legs are in for a workout.

You’ll leave behind Kotor’s blue waters and switchback up dramatic mountain roads, taking in epic views over the bay (pause for photos—you won’t regret it). The ride mixes quiet roads, paths, and tracks, so you’ll want a bike that can handle a bit of gravel and unpaved surfaces.

After the climb, you’ll roll into Cetinje, Montenegro’s old royal capital. It’s a charming mountain town with lots of history, museums, and leafy boulevards, nestled at about 670 meters above sea level. Grab a coffee, catch your breath, and soak up the local atmosphere—you’ve earned it!
