Camp Pod Ostrog

Fancy pottering around a peaceful park, plucking fresh fruit as you roam? Then you’ll likely be most pleased with the setup at Camp Pod Ostrog, a family-run rural site in Central Montenegro.

The friendly folk here are happy to share their homegrown bounty with you: their orchards include figs, pomegranates, plums, apples, pears and cherries. For other eats to cook up over your barbecue it’s a 25-minute drive to Danilovgrad, where there’s also a collection of restaurants and cafés.

If you don’t fancy driving it’s still straightforward to get around here: borrow bikes for local outings or head to the train station (a 10-minute walk) for destinations further afield. Using your own feet is another top option: hiking to the famed Ostrog Monastery will take you around 45 minutes, or you can head in the other direction for a dip in the Zeta river.

Amenities on site include showers, outdoor toilets and water supplies from a natural spring, and there’s also a firepit to strike up a warming campfire of an evening.
