The coastal region is among the scenic areas of Montenegro, a country that is known for its "wild beauty."

Montenegro is part of the middle Mediterranean region, of southern Europe just across the Adriatic Sea from Italy.

Within the geography of a relatively small country, Montenegro retains a peaceful rhythm of life and the charm of old maritime Italian towns, contrasted with soaring mountains, sparkling stretches of pristine sandy beaches, and beautiful lakes and rivers traversing from mountain to sea.

The mountains of Montenegro include some of the most rugged terrain in Europe. They average more than 2,000 metres (6,560 ft) in elevation. One of the country's notable peaks is Bobotov Kuk in the Durmitor mountains, which reaches a height of 2,522 metres (8,274 ft).

More About Montenegro's Wild Beauty

Forests of Montenegro - More than a third of Montenegro is covered with broad-leaved forest canopies, primarily in the high mountain areas of the country. Intriguing is the fact that Montenegro is home to one the last primal forests in this part of the world. The southern Karst zone was forested centuries ago, with oaks and cypresses proliferating, but was deforested long ago for fuel and construction purposes. The Karst is now host to the scrub brush known as maquis, which prospers in the eroded Karst zone soils.

Montenegro's Wild Animal Life - Montenegro is noted as a habitat for numerous mammals, including bears, deer, martens, and wild pigs (Sus scrofa). It has many predatory wild animals, including wolves, foxes, and wildcats. The republic also has a rich variety of birds, reptiles, and fish.
