Auto Camp Matica

No need to go wandering off in search of something to sip upon, for Auto Camp Matica can organise wine tasting on the grounds – this is a family-owned vineyard, after all. Now, for hiking, you’ll probably want to wait until the wine has gone down smoothly. Brdo Zelenika (10 minutes’ drive) is a lush hiking area hardly far away at all. The same goes for activities such as horse riding (20 minutes) and angling at the local fishing lake (25 minutes). You’d never guess you were so close to the capital city of Montenegro here, either, but Podgorica (15 minutes) is indeed just a short drive away. Its clock tower, made by Turks, is worth seeing, along with the stone bridge. Just over on the other side of the city is Lake Skadar National Park, with beaches, hikes and wildlife like Dalmatian pelicans. Karuč (half an hour) is one of the closest spots, a lakeside village with delicious seafood. Monastery Kom (40 minutes) is based on one of the lake’s islands; it’s medieval, and totally stunning.
