About
Mojkovac is a small town in the mountains of northern Montenegro, and it works well as a base for travellers who want to be close to nature without giving up a settled place to stay. It sits in the Tara river valley, a setting that is peaceful and green, and it suits a slower kind of trip.
A gateway to the forest
The town is best known as the entry point to Biogradska Gora National Park, which protects an ancient rainforest. Visitors come to walk among old trees, lakes and streams, and to see some of the last remaining primeval forests in Europe. Because Mojkovac is close by, it makes a practical place to rest between days spent in the park.
What the visit is like
- A quiet stay, with the mountains and forest close at hand.
- A natural base for day trips into Biogradska Gora.
- A chance to learn something of the town's cultural heritage alongside the landscape.
Mojkovac suits those who want calm, fresh air and time outdoors. It is a modest town rather than a large city, so its appeal lies mainly in its setting. Travellers who enjoy forests, mountain scenery and unhurried days will likely find it rewarding, while those looking for a busy urban programme may prefer to combine a stay here with a larger centre nearby.
