Off-road, durmitorski prsten - sept 2010

[Dr.Mracni 196 Napisano April 21, 2016]

Boricje - Dubljevici some part of the road is asphalt, and some part is gravel.

What car will you be driving?

If you ask me would i go with my car (Mazda 6) no way man, just because of one steep part - picture below

This is that road

 

 

 

 

This part is very very steep

 

 

 

but it worth it

Hello Dr. Mracni,

Thank you for your advise.

Yes mentioned part of the road is steep and it is not good idea to pass it with a 2wd car, especially my car. ( Opel Insignia)

But this steep part of the road is not on my plan. I will turn left  exactly  after Boricje  to the Pivsko ezero trough the canyon. Not going to climb up, and will avoid this steep part.  I am right ?

cheers

Ivan

Ajd kad vas vec ima, moze li se kolima putem Trsa-Nedajno-Mala Crna Gora? Taj deo kruga me jedini brine..

Hello VPetar

This is my planed trip.

My Starting point is Zabljak, continuing to the Mala Crna Gora- Nedajno-Nikovici-Crkvicko polje-Donje krusevo-Goransko-Dubljevici and so on back to Zabljak.

 

 

 

Here is the part with steep part mentioned by Dr. Mracni ( surrounded by red color ) As I said I will turn left after Boricje to avoid steep area and will continue following  asphalted road trough Piva canyon.

 

My target is to pass all planed route as it goes trough almost every area of the Durmitor which can be drive with a passenger car.

For better understanding I attached a track file. You can use it with your mapping software eg. mapsource or Garmin basecamp

I expect to pass this trip during the one day. Is it possible ?

cheers

Ivan

Ok, as you sad only route in red from Dubljevici - Boricje is not 2wd car recommended. Everything else is asphalt and sightseeing! 

 

Petre, da sve je asfaltirano, nazalost

Koliko dobro toliko i lose

[redex111 5 Napisano April 22, 2016]

Yeah, No asphalt more fun :-) . Asphalted road is related to the people with a cars like me. Unfortunately we are three people traveling and I cannot use my bike. Otherwise definitely I could ride my bike instead of the car :-)

Cheers

Divni predeli... 

[redex111 5 Napisano Maj 18, 2016]

Yes, very beautiful country, especially Durmitor park.

I have no passion  to go there. Two more days until we go. :-)

I hope that we will enjoy a nice weather and clear view in the Durmitor.   

Cheers

Hey Ivan, same as my name

There were new snow falls on Sunday (15th May), and road Zabljak - Momcilov grad - Mala Crna Gora - Nedajno was not passable. But its warm now, and there was not lot of snow under 20cm so it should be ok until you arrive

[redex111 5 Napisano Maj 19, 2016]

Hello Ivan :-),

Thank you very much for sharing this useful information with me.

You mentioned that a snowfall is happened on 15-th. As you suppose I hope that it will be melt until Sunday. Otherwise I have to reroute my trip.

If there is a snow left at the Susica canyon especially on the Steep parts up down and uphill the canyon I will stuck definitely ( if I ever reach the canyon :-) )

Have you been there after 15-th ?

Cheers

Ivan

[Dr.Mracni 196 Napisano Maj 19, 2016]

No, I haven't been but temperatures are above 10-15 degrees these days so it should be ok until Sunday.

[redex111 5 Napisano Maj 19, 2016]

Zdravo Ivan,

Will see on Sunday morning when my trip will start.   I will take a shovel in case that I stuck in the middle of the nowhere.

Cheers

Bring your snowboard!

[Божа 185 Napisano Maj 21, 2016]

Uf, za deset dana sam dole, nadam se da neću zateći ovakvo stanje 

[Dr.Mracni 196 Napisano Maj 21, 2016]

Toplo je dosta, tako da se ovo moze istopiti i za jedan dan

[redex111 5 Napisano Maj 31, 2016]

Hello everyone,

I finished my trip successfully.

All planed roads was passed, including off-road part :-)

I had a very nice weather, plenty of sunshine, warm and quiet.

Durmitor is amazing place, also Montenegro at all.

After Durmitor we was on Kotor, Lovcen, Budva. Of course I avoided tunnel and pass over the mountain because of beautiful views.

Thank you very much to all of you for your information and advices.

 

Here is some pictures I made during the trip.

)) Good news!

[redex111 5 Napisano Maj 31, 2016]

Yes, We are very happy :-). There is one part that I skipped  because the road was very narrow and I decided to pass it next time with a motorbike.

From Virpazar, next to Skadarsko jezero - Arbnes - Vladimir...  Very panoramic road.

Cheers

Hello Guys,

I realize that this topic is old but let me up it.  As I have received very useful information from you guys for my previous trip. :-)

After my summer trip to  Durmitor circle, I have a plan to go there in the winter.

My question is when the snow I fallen is Durmitor circle passable by a car. Are they do snow cleaning?

Thanks and cheer

Ivan

 

[boki_m 27 Napisano Septembar 17, 2017]

Just to give you an idea..during the winer,residents of Zabljak are often digging tunnels through snow just to walk between houses..

[redex111 5 Napisano Septembar 19, 2017]

Wow. Hard winter there. This is usual weather behavior during the winter or isolated periods ?

Cheers

Ivan

[Dr.Mracni 196 Napisano Septembar 19, 2017]

Until May, Durmitor ring is only possible to ride with the snow mobile  

[redex111 5 Napisano Septembar 20, 2017]

Okay, it seems that I will go there only in the town of Zabljak :-)

Thanks for the information guys I appreciate it.

Cheers

Hello guys,

I am not sure that this is the right place  to ask but let me try.

I will go to Biogradska gora national park and I need some an information in regards off.

I saw that there is an unpaved road started from the lake and it goes uphill then trough the park.

Is this road is allowed for SUVs ? from the law perspective, is it possible to be passed as well ?

 I am able to see most of the road with google earth but in the forest where there is a serpentines  the road is not visible.

To be more easy for you to understand when I want to go, here is the road on the map

I will highly appreciate any information provided.

Thanks

Ivan
