At different time of the year we can collect medicinal herbs like: heather, sage, fireweed, mint, thyme and lot more. I tell about their health benefit during my tours.

The climb is very steep, but if you breath properly, you can climb. The most important thing is to follow the rule that Montenegrins use all the time – POLAKO – which means slowly, no rush.

You can see video of this tour on the page bottom.

On tour to the highest peak of the mountain you will be able to see views like this.
