Jeep Tour to Prokletije National Park — Komovi, Plav Lake & Waterfalls
Drive high gravel roads into the Accursed Mountains on a half-day jeep tour that links Komovi, Plav Lake, and waterfall-fed springs. Expect dramatic ridgelines, short scenic walks, and local village stops—ideal for travelers who want big mountain views without multi-day trekking.
The Experience
Before You Go
Layer for variable mountain weather
Temperatures can swing quickly at 1,800 m — pack a light windbreaker and insulating midlayer.
Wear good-traction footwear
Stops involve short walks on rocky, sometimes muddy ground; ankle-supporting shoes reduce injury risk.
Carry water and snacks
There are limited services on high-mountain stops; bring at least 1–2 liters per person and energy-rich snacks.
Expect dusty roads and bumpy ride
Jeep tracks can be rough; secure loose gear and protect camera lenses from dust.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems

Conservation Note
Prokletije’s alpine meadows and waterways are sensitive to erosion and litter; sticking to vehicle tracks and carrying out all trash helps protect fragile habitats.
This borderland region has long been a cultural crossroads; villages here retain Ottoman-era and pastoral mountain customs reflected in local cuisine and seasonal grazing patterns.
