Very nice climb in the beautiful Piva Nature Park in Montenegro. The climb is very regular, but then regularly steep. The road winds up from the Vbrnica reservoir towards the border with Bosnia. Only a few cottages to be seen along the way and the occasional car of a local. At the top, the road flattens out and there is a car belonging to Montenegro's border police.

Very nice climb in the beautiful Piva Nature Park in Montenegro.

The climb is very regular, but then regularly steep. The road winds up from the Vbrnica reservoir towards the border with Bosnia. Only a few cottages to be seen along the way and the occasional car of a local.

At the top, the road flattens out and there is a car belonging to Montenegro's border police. A policeman got out and gestured that a border was approaching and asked me to turn around. This is no punishment as the view of the valley is stunning!

Hele mooie klim in het prachtige Piva Natuurpark in Montenegro.

De klim is zeer regelmatig, maar dan wel regelmatig steil. De weg kronkelt vanuit het Vbrnica stuwmeer naar boven richting de grens met Bosnië. Onderweg alleen maar een paar huisjes te zien en af en toe een auto van een lokale bewoner.

Op de top vlakt de weg af en staat er een auto van de grenspolitie van Montenegro. Een politieman stapte uit en gebaarde dat er een grens aankwam en verzocht me om te draaien. Dit is geen straf want het uitzicht op het dal is prachtig!
