This inviting journey lets you discover the iconic Lesendro Fortress, glide along the tranquil Morača River, and soak in the breathtaking scenery that makes Lake Skadar so special.
Your adventure starts in the charming lakeside village of Virpazar, just a short drive from Montenegro’s capital, Podgorica. When you arrive at the meeting point, a friendly member of our Kingfisher team will greet you and check your vouchers. With everything sorted, you’ll step aboard our comfortable boat, ready to set off on your Skadar Lake adventure.
As the boat gently navigates a narrow river channel lined with willows and reeds, you’ll be treated to stunning views of Mount Vranjina and the distant Albanian mountains. Keep your eyes open for native birds perched along the way, especially as you approach the impressive ruins of Lesendro Fortress rising from the water, a perfect spot for photos and a glimpse into Montenegro’s rich history.
Next, you’ll cruise along the Morača River, a haven for birdlife and recognised as an Internationally Important Bird Area. The boat will pause in the open waters, giving you the chance to take a refreshing swim in the lake’s crystal-clear blue depths. Don’t forget your swimsuit and towel! As you relax, enjoy a glass of delicious local wine and let the peaceful beauty of Lake Skadar create memories you’ll cherish long after your tour ends.
