Top Biking Trail 3 - EASTERN ENCHANTMENT (Alternative)

This route will introduce the inquisitive, discovery-thirsty two-wheel traveller to the kingdom where the heights and distant views are intertwined with mysterious forests and valleys, and the landscapes change, different as though hundreds of kilometres apart. From the solitude of the mountains to the tamed, inhabited areas, from vast green spaces to the deep blue of rivers and lakes, from rocks and cliffs to meadows – this is all on the menu for this great feast, which will leave no one indifferent or in want of long-lasting memories. Travelling the TT3 is not easy. But in order to conquer it one needs to be in good, but not top, shape – what is far more important is a positive approach, a strong will and good planning (in order to always leave enough time for the more difficult parts of the trail). Besides this, the landscapes we will be riding through never cease to excite and inspire us, and the final reward – the poetry of riding through exotic landscapes and the good fortune to see some of the most beautiful places in Montenegro – will be incomparably greater than the effort we put in. Every true nature lover knows that this is a good bargain.

Before you start it is good to know

The route can be travelled carrying weight on the bike (camping gear, etc.) but because of some more difficult parts we recommend that you keep the weight as small as possible: with good planning one can always spend the night under a roof, and food and water supplies do not have to be larger than half a day’s. Water from all the wells along the route is good for drinking. Due to the remoteness of many sections it is recommended that you travel in a group, and have a map and a compass (or even better, a GPS device), mobile phone, flashlight, basic bike tools and a spare tyre as the minimum level of equipment. The Top Trail 3 route is marked with signposts along its whole length, and on this web site you can find GPS data (track logs and waypoints) that will make navigation along the route even easier and safer.
