5000m of altitude incline in only 180km of distance? That’s Montenegro! We spend a week in this mountainous country in September 2022, cycling south to north. Coming from Albania, we immediately noticed a change in vegetation….and with greener valleys and lakes or ponds at the wayside, also an increase of mosquitoes! These little devils hunted us whilst we were sweating like we were sitting in a Finnish sauna when climbing the first mountains in Montenegro.
The adventures continued when we booked a accommodation to shower off the sweat (and tears 😉) of an exhausting stage. When we arrived we were faced by a little room without running water….the area was cut off from water supply due to a drought!
And if this was not enough (and in great contradiction) the next day we were forecd to stay another night in the water-free accommodation, since crazy thunderstorms flooded the area.
To finish our tumultuous stay in Montenegro, just 10km before crossing the border to Bosnia we were faced with our first flat tire after almost 3500km on the road.
