Skadar Lake, the meditative wonder of the wild
A perfect day in nature awaits on Lake Skadar, the largest lake on the Balkans that touches the borders of Albania and Montenegro. Driving up here along a wiggling road that travels through forested mountains is just one of the many photo ops on this journey. Hop on a boat and cruise along River Crnojevića, munching on Montenegrin fritters, cheese and honey. Skadar wetlands are home to over 280 species of birds – be on the lookout for the curly pelican, the park's trademark. Wrap up the day with a visit to a local winery and a truly local lunch – fish from the lake.
