Đurđevića Tara Bridge
170 metres tall road bridge above Tara river canyon, offering epic views.
The mountain pass on the R16 (also called P14) road is easily reachable by car or bike, lying at 1900 meters above sea level. The road there is very scenic in both ways, and you can start many hikes from here, with the tallest mountain of Durmitor, Babotov Kuk, being only 4.9 km far by walking. The parking here is marked as paid at OpenStreetMap, but there is no one to collect any fee.
A useful camp near the pass on M-16 road passing thought the park.
A good campsite near Žabljak, on the trail towards Sedlo pass. They do registration here.
Car is definitely the best way to get to Durmitor, as the public transportation is limited in Montenegro. You can use the M-3 (E762) road going from Bosnia and passing through another scenic location, Piva river valley.
