The first part with the hairpin bends was quite busy with crowded buses. The second part where you did have to pay because you were entering a national park (3 euro) there were no cars and a super nice street. The higher you go the more cars at the lift there was wa more people than a short descent. Then the street suddenly became very poor quality and the higher you went, the busier it got. Once you got to the top, the chaos wasn't too bad.

prvá časť z Kotora je krásne pozvoľne stúpanie nad záliv s nádhernými výhľadmi. Je to dosť frekventovaná cesta (aj autobusy), tak nezabudnite svetlá a dávajte pozor v zákrutách. Následná časť je stúpanie v otvorenom teréne, a záver zaujímave stúpanie pod vrchol. Ja som išiel pred príchodom búrky, takže v otvorenej krajine netreba zabudnúť na silné poryvy vetra.

The first part from Kotor is a beautiful, gradual climb above the bay with stunning views. It's a fairly busy road (including buses), so don't forget your lights and be cautious in the curves. The next section is a climb through open terrain, and the final part is an interesting ascent near the summit. I rode it just before a storm, so in open terrain, don't forget about the strong gusts of wind.

I did the Kotor Serpentine up to the restaurant (the horizontal) because I had no idea the climb went any further. Still, the first part is definitely worth it. It is a good amount of hairpins with beautiful views of Kotor Bay each time. The climb is very constant and therefore doable. There is quite some traffic, but it doesn't really bother you (traffic mainly bothers each other because the road is actually too narrow to pass each other, but that's no problem for cyclists :-)
