Three countries tour

Welcome to Bosnia and Hezegovina.

You start your cycle tour right on the doorstep of your hotel and first cycle through authentic villages in the Trebišnjica Valley. Later you follow the road towards the border with Montenegro. From the border station, a leisurely descent begins towards Herceg Novi in Montenegro. Enjoy the first views of the Bay of Kotor. Stroll through the alleyways of the historic centre of Herceg Novi or treat yourself to your first dip in the Adriatic Sea.

Today you cycle to the highlights of the Bay of Kotor. You cycle along the old railway line, which once connected Dubrovnik and Herceg Novi, to Zelenika. Along the coast, you will visit Risan and Perast, the pearls of the bay. Take your time to explore the picturesque historic town and its beautiful church islands (by shuttle boat, not included). Lunch at a mussel farm in Orahovac is highly recommended before continuing the tour along the coast to Kotor. By shuttle bus via Budva and Sv. Stefan to Stari Bar.

At the start of today's stage, you will pass olive groves with trees that are more than 2000 years old. You cycle above the Adriatic Sea around Bar, the "olive oil capital" of Montenegro, and can stop en route for a picnic at Lake Sas. Enjoy the beautiful view as you cycle through a wide valley. You cross the border into Albania. A few more kilometres and you will reach Shkodra, Albania's second largest city.

Cycle to the river Drin and treat yourself to lunch in one of Albania's best restaurants, the slow food restaurant "Mrizi I Zanave" ("Garden of the Fairy"). On the way, you will pass the mighty Drin river dam and experience Albanian village life. You can either return the same way (approx. 65 km) or a shuttle service can be organised on request (for a fee on site) to take you back to Shkodra. If you feel like it, you can extend the cycle tour on this day through flat terrain through Albanian villages (approx. 90 km).

A one-hour transfer takes you across the border to Montenegro and bridges the first major ascent. A beautiful but challenging panoramic tour awaits you today. You follow a narrow road above Lake Skadar and cycle through vineyards, villages with countless breathtaking views of the lake and the dramatic Albanian Alps. You cycle through centuries-old majestic chestnut groves that surround the village of Ostros. Continue cycling high above the lake until you see Montenegro's "Alcatraz" in the distance - a former prison island from the time of King Nikola. In Godinje, a traditional wine region, you can recharge your batteries before the final climb on the way to Virpazar. Optionally, you can take a boat trip (1.5 hours) on Lake Skadar to enjoy the beauty of the lake and take a refreshing dip. Transfer to Lovcen National Park in the late afternoon.

Today's tour takes you along the famous Austro-Hungarian serpentine road directly from the mountains to the sea, with the most beautiful panoramic views of the Bay of Kotor. If you are up for the challenge, you can cycle the last 200 metres up to the mausoleum of Montenegro's most important historical figure, Petar Petrović Njegoš. From the viewing platform at the mausoleum, you can enjoy a breathtaking panoramic view over almost the whole of Montenegro on a clear day. Once you have mastered the first climb, the route continues downhill for over 30 kilometres. There are several great viewpoints along the way. At the end of the 3-country cycling adventure, you will reach the walls of the old town of Kotor. Enjoy the Mediterranean atmosphere of Kotor and a last beautiful evening by the most beautiful fjord in Montenegro.
