Breathtaking Panoramas
Journeying from Kotor to Lovćen via Cable Car
The Kotor-Lovćen Gondola, an ambitious project in Montenegro, connects the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Kotor with the breathtaking Lovćen National Park. The gondola spans 3.9 kilometers and offers a vertical ascent of 1,316 meters, allowing visitors to travel from sea level to the mountains in less than eleven minutes. This not only facilitates quick and convenient travel but also significantly reduces carbon emissions by minimizing the use of cars and buses on the old Njeguš road.
The Lovćen National Park, a highlight of the gondola's journey, is known for its diverse flora and fauna, including several endemic species, and the iconic Mausoleum of Njegoš at the peak of Mount Lovćen. The project underscores Montenegro's commitment to sustainable tourism and economic growth, providing a seamless experience that combines the country's natural beauty with cultural heritage.
The Kotor-Lovćen Gondola officially launched on August 14, 2023, marking the culmination of a project that promises to be a transformative addition to Montenegro's tourism landscape. It offers awe-inspiring views of the Adriatic Sea and the old town of Kotor, with opportunities for exploration and adventure in Lovćen National Park. This includes hiking trails, picnicking amidst nature, and visiting the Njegos Mausoleum for panoramic views of the landscape. The project, heralded as a game-changer, is expected to enhance Montenegro's appeal as a destination, combining natural beauty, history, and modern infrastructure.
