Montenegro is often nicknamed the “Jewel of the Mediterranean” thanks to its diverse natural landscape. Travelers are drawn to its mountains, glacial lakes, parks, rivers and beaches. Montenegro’s coast is also home to some of the country’s most beautiful ancient towns, rising dramatically from the Adriatic and welcoming visitors to explore.

This, along with the country’s compact size and Mediterranean climate and cultures, makes it especially popular among bicycle tourists. The mountains of Montenegro allow cyclists to experience the dramatic views (and equally dramatic climbs), while coastal rides allow for views of the sparkling Adriatic.
