Choose Your Adventure in Žabljak and around
Spend the day exploring Durmitor, get properly tired, then come back to Peaksview for the kind of recovery you've earned.
Durmitor is made for days outside.
Hike through the mountains, go rafting through the Tara Canyon, explore on horseback or choose something a little more adventurous. You don't need to fit everything into one day — pick one experience, give it the time it deserves and leave enough of the day to enjoy coming home.
At PeaksView Chalets, an adventure day has two parts: getting out there and slowing down afterwards.
Here's how we'd do it.
08:00 — START WITH A PROPER BREAKFAST
Today is not the day to survive on coffee.
Have breakfast at your chalet, check the weather and get ready for a few hours outside.
Water, comfortable shoes, an extra layer and whatever your chosen activity requires.
Then pick your adventure.
09:00 — CHOOSE YOUR ADVENTURE
OPTION 1 — HIKING IN DURMITOR
Go higher.
Durmitor National Park has everything from easy walks to serious mountain routes.
Choose a trail that matches your experience, the weather and how much of the day you want to spend outside.
For a relaxed adventure day, pick a moderate route with enough time to stop, enjoy the views and get back to Peaksview without turning the day into a race.
Best for: Mountain views, nature & active days
[RECOMMENDED HIKES Loading...]
Allow: 3–6+ hours depending on the route
Important: Always check current mountain and weather conditions before setting out.
OPTION 2 — RAFTING THE TARA RIVER
See Durmitor from a completely different perspective.
The Tara River and its canyon offer one of the area's classic outdoor experiences.
Spend the first half of the day on the water, surrounded by steep canyon walls, forests and some of northern Montenegro's wildest landscapes.
This option requires more driving and planning than a local hike, so start early and allow most of the day for the experience.
Best for: Groups, couples & first-time adventure seekers
Allow: Half day or full day depending on the tour
Seasonal: Availability depends on the time of year and river conditions.
OPTION 3 — HORSE RIDING
Explore at a different pace.
You don't have to climb a mountain or spend the day on the river to have an adventure.
Horse riding around Žabljak is a slower way to experience the open landscapes, countryside and mountain surroundings.
It's also a good option if you want an active morning without committing the entire day.
Best for: Couples, families & slower adventure days
Allow: 1–3 hours depending on the route
OPTION 4 — QUAD & ATV TOURS
Explore Durmitor beyond the usual roads.
Quad and ATV tours are a popular way to explore the landscapes around Žabljak — combining mountain tracks, open countryside, viewpoints and places that are harder to reach on a regular drive.
Choose a shorter ride if you want to combine it with other activities, or make it the main adventure of the day.
Best for: adventure, couples, friends & small groups
Allow: 1–3+ hours
Good to know: routes and availability depend on weather and seasonal conditions
OPTION 5 — GO FURTHER
For those who want a little more.
Depending on the season and conditions, Durmitor and the surrounding area offer plenty of other ways to spend an active day.
Canyoning, cycling, longer mountain routes and other outdoor experiences can turn a quiet mountain stay into something considerably less quiet.
The rule is simple:
Choose one good adventure instead of trying to fit five into the same day.
14:00 — STOP FOR LUNCH
Whatever you chose, don't rush straight into the next activity.
Find somewhere for a proper lunch and give yourself some time to slow down.
If you're already thinking about the jacuzzi back at Peaksview, that's perfectly normal.
16:00 — COME HOME
The second half of Adventure Day starts here.
Head back to Peaksview, leave the hiking boots and wet gear behind and change into something considerably more comfortable.
You've done enough for today.
Now recover.
16:30 — POOL & SAUNA
Head to the Peaksview SPA Area for your reserved session.
Start with an easy swim in the heated pool.
Then warm up in the sauna, slow down in the relaxation area and let your legs recover from whatever you made them do earlier.
No sightseeing. No driving. Next stop is just relax.
18:00 — JACUZZI TIME
From mountain trail to warm water.
Head back to your chalet and get into your private jacuzzi.
Cold mountain air outside. Warm water. Nothing else scheduled for a while.
This is one of those moments where being back at your accommodation shouldn't feel like the adventure is over.
It's part of the day.
19:30 — DINNER
You've earned a proper dinner. Head into Žabljak for something local, cook at your chalet or stay outside with a BBQ when the weather allows.
Take your time. Tomorrow can be slower.
21:00 — JACUZZI OR FIREPLACE
Adventure outside. Cozy evening at home.
As the temperature drops, stay outside in the jacuzzi for a little longer.
Or head inside, light the fireplace and settle into the chalet for the evening.
A drink, a movie, a book or simply absolutely nothing.
After a full day outside, that's usually enough.
22:30 — CALL IT A DAY
If the sky is clear, step outside one more time.
Sit by the outdoor fire, look at the stars or take one last jacuzzi before bed.
Then sleep properly.
Durmitor will still be there tomorrow.
ADVENTURE OUTSIDE. RECOVERY AT HOME.
The best adventure days don't need to stay busy from morning until night.
Spend the first half exploring.
Hike through Durmitor. Get on the Tara River. Ride through the countryside. Try something you've never done before.
Then come back.
Heated pool. Sauna. Private jacuzzi. Dinner. Fireplace.
That's our version of an adventure day at Peaksview.
Stay Close to the Adventure
Explore Durmitor during the day and come back to your own mountain chalet with a private jacuzzi and access to the Peaksview SPA Area.
