This spacious mountain nature park includes one of the most impressive and recognizable mountain massifs in the eastern part of Montenegro. The status of a protected area was obtained through individual decisions of the municipalities that share it — Andrijevice, Kolašina and Podgorica — with the aim of preserving the unique high mountain landscapes, rich biodiversity and traditions of this region. The Komova massif is historically and geographically deeply woven into the identity of local tribes, and today it represents a real paradise for mountaineers, alpinists and lovers of untouched wilderness.
The relief of the park is dominated by three mountainous, bare limestone peaks that rise sharply above the green plateaus: Kučki Kom (2,487 meters above sea level), Vasojevićki Kom (2,461 meters) and Ljevorecki Kom (2,453 meters). These monumental peaks, carved by former glacial erosion, are surrounded by vast plateaus and plateau meadows such as Stavna, Ljuban and Roga. From these vantage points you can enjoy an incredible view of the surrounding Montenegrin mountains, and the massif itself represents an important hydrographic junction from which the flows of our big rivers, primarily Tara and Lima, originate and are fed. Due to the specific geographical location, pronounced relief and the intertwining of continental and mountain climatic influences, Komi is recognized as one of the most important centers of floristic biodiversity on the Balkan Peninsula. The lower zones of the massif are covered with a dense and preserved forest of beech, fir and spruce, while on the higher, rocky areas, you can find rare and endemic plant species, many of which are protected by law. This vast mountain ecosystem provides a stable habitat and safe haven for numerous wildlife, including wolves, brown bears, chamois that roam the steep cliffs, foxes and roe deer, while the sky above the peaks is often dominated by bald eagles and falcons. The special value and charm of the Komovi Nature Park is given by the human stamp, which is reflected in the age-old, traditional way of life in the high mountain katuns. On the vast plateaus shared by Andrijevica, Kolašin and Podgorica, the local population still practices the seasonal herding of cattle to the rich mountain pastures during the summer months. Life on the katuns preserved the authentic wooden architecture and nomadic culture of the highlanders. A visit to this park provides a unique opportunity to experience original Montenegrin hospitality and enjoy traditional gastronomic products, such as the famous mountain cheese, cream, homemade bread and dishes prepared on the hearth.
