The Kolašin Ski Center, in its fairytale winter edition, offers a wide range of trails suitable for all levels of skiers, from beginners to experienced professionals. With good trails and a team, every moment spent on the mountain becomes an unforgettable experience.

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 five-day trip for the Sretenje holidays, we will have a unique opportunity to ski or learn to ski in the ski centers 1450 and 1600 in Kolašin. These ski resorts are among the most beautiful in the Balkans, offering outstanding slopes and spectacular views of nature.

Whether you are an experienced skier or just starting, the ski centers 1450 and 1600 will provide you with the perfect atmosphere to enjoy skiing. Instructors will be on hand to help you perfect your snow skills. Shared ski sessions are ideal for meeting and socializing with other enthusiasts.

Trails are planned for hiking enthusiasts depending on the height of the snow cover. You can opt for tours in Bjelasica, Sinjajevina, Komovi, or Visitor. Mountaineering tours will be organized with snowshoeing, providing you with a unique experience of exploring snowy landscapes. These activities are ideal for enjoying the magic of winter.

For hedonists, we recommend a spa experience at the Bianca Resort & Spa Hotel.
