CANYONING

Canyoning is passing through riverbeds, downstream, with or without equipment. The use of equipment depends on difficulty of river’s canyon. This sport includes activities as: descending along waterfalls with or without a rope, climbing, passing through holes, diving, jumping into wate.

The name of the canyon, Nevidio (Unseen) literally means it. It is a privilege only for the biggest, bravest and most stubborn lovers of nature. A mystery and excitement that you take over in mentioning Nevidio Canyon is supported by the fact that it was discovered only in 1965. The first to see untouched pearl of nature were mountaineers of the Javorak Association from Nikšić. Nevidio Canyon is in fact canyon of the Komarnica River. The canyon is 25km long and in some places its width goes down to amazing 25cm. Rocks that rise along the canyon are so steep and passages are so narrow that the scene at the moment truly takes one’s breath away.

PARAGLIDING

Paragliding is a recent sport in Žabljak. The first flights were made few years ago, and with the first flight experiences in Durmitor, pilots discovered the most interesting area for this sport in our country. The sport was brought in Žabljak by various associations and people. First, the solo flights were done and later the tandem flights for tourists started.

Also, some paragliding camps were organized in Žabljak. The participants of the camps agreed that Durmitor is suitable place for this sport. There is not a large number of people who mastered this craft, therefore there is an idea to establish a paragliding association which would increase possibility for more people to enjoy this mountain and it would make Durmitor a famous paragliding destination for people all over the world. Simply, when you feel Durmitor once, you will always come back...
