Full description
- Meet Sinjajevina: the home of Zabojsko and Zminičko lakes – one of the most scenic bike routes in Montenegro. Sinjajevina is also known for the largest pasture range in Montenegro, bordered by the canyons of the powerful mountain rivers Tara and Morača. This tour lasts approximately 4 hours. Starting from Žabljak, we ride towards the Jezerska plateau, through a place called Junča Do, towards Njegovuđa village. This is the largest village in the Žabljak area. Not so long ago, it was quite populated, but nowadays many old houses are empty. From here, we continue towards Zminičko Lake. Another green Durmitor pearl, surrounded by conifer trees, represents a great place for a deserved rest, where you can enjoy beautiful, stunning nature. In this lake, you can find an endemic type of triturus or salamander, so if you are an animal and biology enthusiast, you can spot it and take some interesting pictures. From Zminičko Lake, we continue our mountain bike ride towards Sinjajevina Mountain. On this part of the road, you will enjoy magnificent scenery. Sinjajevina is known as the second-largest mountainous grazing land in Europe. With its unique biodiversity and breathtaking surroundings and viewpoints it is a must-see! After a break, we ride down towards a village called Dobri Nugo, making a circle and riding towards Vražje and Riblje Lake. We ride down the asphalt road, and from this place, you can see the whole 'front side' of Durmitor Mountain. Vražje Lake (The Devil's Lake) and Riblje Lake (Fish's Lake) are close to each other, both located in meadows. Centuries ago, these two lakes made one big lake, but nowadays, they are separated and slightly different. Vražje Lake is a popular site for daily trips, swimming, and windsurfing. However, Riblje Lake is smaller and mostly covered with grass. Both sites are quite visited by e-bikers and all mountain bikers. On the other side of the lakes, there are Stećci, that is - medieval tombstones. It is believed that they were used by the Bogumils. That is why they were usually called Bogomil’s Cemetery. Bogumils did not build churches, but they prayed at home and outside. They loved poetry and agriculture. On our route, we will pass two sites of Stećci. Those tombstones are scattered in these two areas and there are no inscriptions on them, but they are decorated with hunting scenes, crosses, arrows...You cannot come here without thinking of those old times, imagining their life and admiring their work! Soon, we are closing the circle of our mountain ride and returning to Žabljak! Prepare yourself for an amazing ride, astonishing viewpoints, and much more!
