Durmitor National Park, National park and UNESCO World Heritage Site in northwestern Montenegro.

The park contains 48 mountain peaks above 2,000 meters, including Bobotov Kuk at 2,523 meters, along with 18 glacial lakes across its 39,000 hectares.

The designation of Durmitor as a national park in 1952 marked Montenegro's commitment to preserving its natural landscapes and protecting indigenous wildlife populations.

The surrounding communities maintain traditional practices through regional foods, wooden architecture, and seasonal festivals that reflect the connection between residents and nature.

Visitors can access the park through the town of Zabljak, where they find accommodations, equipment rentals, and professional guides for various outdoor activities.

The Tara River Canyon within the park reaches depths of 1,300 meters, making it Europe's deepest gorge and one of the world's most significant geological formations.
