Scenic Sport Climbing in Montenegro

POST UPDATED 2026

Montenegro is a small country, the 38th smallest in Europe, in fact. However, despite its small size, it has a huge amount of natural beauty and variety. From the stunning coastline to the inspiring high peaks of Durmitor and many, many canyons filled with beautiful cliffs, perfect for sport climbing! The rock quality is generally really good, and in recent years there has been more and more development of climbing areas and the bolting of many new routes. We first visited Montenegro around 5 years ago, and had a great trip, and we really enjoyed the climbing. We have since returned again in 2026, and had an even better trip! The quality and quantity of new routes was amazing and clearly Montenegrin climbing is going from strength to strength. We thought the climbing was excellent and we were so glad we were able to return for another trip, and we would go back for a third time in a heartbeat!
