Chapel Near the Fortress of Kotor

Highlight • Religious Site

The chapel ruin is located outside the fortress, on the mountain side behind it.
We were able to enter the chapel freely in 04.2024. The ceiling painting is rudimentarily present.
The hiking trail, which comes from the mountain ridge, forks at this chapel.
It has a small walled churchyard and around it are numerous wall remains of former buildings.

May 30, 2024,Leiter von Kotor + darüber hinaus und Rückweg über die Altstadt

We start the tour on the outskirts of the city. The parking lot here is free and you avoid some of the daily traffic jams. If you want a beautiful and not too difficult panoramic tour, just walk the 70 serpentines and back again. The view is beautiful! The tour is easy to do in the rain! Burning sun makes …

September 5, 2023,Festung Sveti Ivan – Die 1450 Stufen von Kotor Runde von Tabačina

The "Head of Kotor" is the name of the old mule path, which was the only way from Kotor to the hinterland before the road was built.
It goes uphill in many serpentines, but the path is pleasant to walk and it only gets really steep at the end. At first you walk through fig and pomegranate bushes, later there …

June 5, 2024,Panoramarunde von Kotor

A wonderful hike that, leaving aside the path from the car park, starts directly behind one of the city gates of Kotor.
We chose the serpentines for the ascent, and the 1350 steps from the fortress to Kotor for the descent (€15 per person).
The classic, serpentines and stairs, has significantly less elevation and is also much shorter.
We hung …

May 30, 2022,Kotor - fortress - Café Nevjesta jadrana - loop

This is a long hike but not difficult if you are reasonably fit. We went through the castle (you have to pay the entrance fee) where there is a very nice view over Kotor. To exit the fortress, you have to go through a window and climb down a little wooden ladder. Further up, at the fork, we went right …

Unfortunately, I didn't make it to the summit because the path was too dangerous! Still, a really nice hike

March 30, 2026,Wonderful hike to Njeguši 🏞️🇲🇪🏔️ (through ruins of Veliki Zalazi)

More like 6-7hours walking (10h in total, pauses included)

October 18, 2023,Hiking directly from Kotor (not good marked, Hiking shoes and experience are necessary)

Sometimes, I lost the path and had to climb through the bushes. Part of the trail in the beginning is destroyed by avalanche. So you should be careful and follow the path. Also it is very rocky there. So you definitely need hiking boots.
