Cycling in Montenegro – what to expect

10 October 2026 · by Zorica Ivanović

Sea, mountains and hospitality. What to expect when cycling in Montenegro and who this destination suits.

Montenegro is a country close to my heart. In a small area you will find a warm sea, steep mountains and old towns. A bicycle reveals a different side from the beach.

What is the terrain like?

The coast is hilly, with roads winding above the sea. Inland you will find longer climbs and magnificent views. An e-bike can help a lot.

Places worth seeing

Bay of Kotor and Kotor old town (UNESCO)
Budva and Sveti Stefan islet
Lake Skadar
Sutomore and Stari Bar

When to go

May, June and September are best for cycling. The coast can be very hot in summer.

We do not run cycling tours in Montenegro itself. If you like the sound of it, join us in neighbouring Albania, with its equally beautiful coastline: see our Albanian coast tour or all tours in Albania. Looking for day trips from Sutomore? Visit klik-tour.com.
