Its Niagara in Montenegro: here you need to visit necessarily!
Montenegro is a treasure trove of unique natural attractions that are no less mysterious and mysterious than its ancient architectural monuments. The history of each place, regardless of its age, is reminiscent of the old legend of friendship or enmity between man and Mother Nature.
Similarly, a wonderful place was born in the vicinity of Podgorica, which concentrated all the conditions necessary for a beautiful holiday in the bosom of nature.
Niagara in Montenegro is a micro-copy of the famous Niagara Falls, which appeared as a result of the construction of a dam on the river Tsievna. The dam was necessary for local shepherds and wine growers, but the river, known for its freestyle and violent temper, did not succumb to this time. It began to flow through the mound, forming one big waterfall and a few small ones.
The most beautiful sight here unfolds during the spring high water, when ice begins to melt on the mountains Prokletie, where the river originates. The entire reservoir is filled with crystal clear water, which reflects the transparent skies of Montenegro.
How to get there?
If you drive from Ulcinj, Bara, then almost in front of Podgorica itself, after a roundabout to the airport (here it is called a circular current), you must turn to the right on the first turn after the bridge over the river.
You will see an inconspicuous rural road with a pointer to Kuća Rakica. On it you will need to drive a couple of kilometers parallel to the river, while on the right you will not see the Niagara restaurant advertisement and a sharp downhill downhill - there will be a restaurant and a bit behind it - the waterfall itself.
If you are traveling from Podgorica, then reach the roundabout to the airport, turn around on it and follow the directions above.
So that you will not get lost at all, here are the coordinates for the navigator: longitude 19.2791 latitude 42.3835
Montenegro is not such a big country to not get to this wonderful place, if you stopped to live, for example, in Ulcinj. Yes, perhaps it is far off, but not for those who usually travel 40 kilometers across the city to work.
Previously, from the side of Bar, Ulcinj, Sutomore it was necessary to go along the old road to Virpazar - one strip, a mountain serpentine with daily landslides - not for beginners, and because of the speed of 20 km / h there was about 2 hours, no less.
Now there is a Sozino tunnel, 4 kms long - beautiful, convenient, and I would even call it another attraction of the country, connecting the capital with many cities on the coast.
The place itself is charming, but be careful - there are no fences on the waterfall, and you can count only on your consciousness and accuracy. And please do not let the children's hands go!
What is Niagara in Montenegro?
Near the waterfalls there is an excellent restaurant with the same name Niagara, made in the style of eco: near you will run geese and swans, rabbits and many more animals. All of them can be fed (however, they will not even ask - geese are so brazen that they will leave you without bread at the first opportunity), waiters can take you out on a small loaf especially for birds, and do not even include it in the bill. I can not vouch for all animals, but most of them are just tame, and they can be ironed and squeezed (pre-fed) - the children will have fun, not worse than a contact zoo.
And if you decide to spend a day alone with nature, but without giving up comfort, you will be pleasantly here and alone. In addition, there is no fee for visiting the waterfall - this man-made miracle is open to all!
By the way, I am sure that most people have never fed and not stroked, for example, a swan: in the wild, it can not be picked up, but in the zoo ... most likely, too, not get close. So this is your chance to get to know the world of amazing birds.
The menu of the restaurant is served in at least three languages: Russian, English, Serbian. Service is good, with a small number of visitors, even fast, and prices ... prices are surprisingly penny, given the place and popularity of the restaurant. Four meat second dishes, two large salads, tea-coffee at all cost about 20 euros. They say they are preparing great trout and other river fish. But I was impressed by the usual roast chicken with cream sauce. They also joked that it was impossible to order the most prone goose in the form of a grill, so that others could not beg for food in excessive quantities.
While you get there you will see the largest vineyards of Montenegro, they have no end and no end, they are hiding somewhere on the horizon. There are a lot of cows and horses in the fields in front of the river, so the species there are really impressive. Hardcore amateur photographers from the hands just will not be released.
If you have time, you can spend it in Podgorica, visiting the cinema or wandering around the beautiful pedestrian center.
