Komovi represent one of the most impressive mountain massifs in Montenegro. They belong to the Dinaric mountain system, surrounded by the mountain Bjelasica and the massif of the Kučki Planina and Prokletije. They are located near Kolašin and Andrijevica. In terms of surface area, they occupy a relatively small area, while in terms of the height of their peaks, they are among the highest mountains in Montenegro. The Komovi massif consists of several peaks, and the most famous are three peaks: the highest Kučki Kom (2487 m), then Ljevorecki (2469 m) and Vasojevićki Kom (2461 m).

Bjelasica is the most famous mountain in Montenegro due to its richness and variety of vegetation, which is specific because of its volcanic origin. It is located between the river Lim and Tara in the east and Ljuboviđa and Lepenica in the north. It belongs to the municipalities of Kolašin, Mojkovac, Bijelo Polje, Berane and Andrijevica, and is accessible from almost all directions. It is decorated with glacial lakes or "mountain eyes", of which there are six. The most famous is Lake Biogradsko, which together with the old rainforest of Biogradska Gora forms the national park of the same name - the oldest in Europe. The highest peaks of Bjelasica are: Crna glava (2139 m), Zekova glava (2117 m) and Troglav (2072 m).

On this trip, 2 days of hiking and enjoying natural phenomena and mountain scenery await us. We will hike along the picturesque trail to Vasojevički Kom, then the green Bjelasica, and relax on Lake Biograd surrounded by conifers.
