Useful links about public transport in Serbia and Montenegro (planes, trains, buses) are on Prokletije main page in the section 'Getting There', courtesy of vvujisic. When travelling to eastern Prokletije you can also consider a flight to Priština/Prishtina, the capital of Kosovo and Metohija/Kosova, if you have any convenient connections. The usua...
Some routes in eastern Prokletije, with even more pics: Đeravica from Visoki Dečani via Kožnjar (marked on the map). Alternative route to Đeravica, also from Visoki Dečani. Takes a shortcut - worth considering if you're without a car and can't drive up to Kožnjar. Route to Bogdaš, Đeravica's neighbour.

As far as I know, there aren't any functio...

We climbed the peak in 2005 from Junik via the Erenik river. When we got towards the upper part of the mountain we met a large UNMIK mine clearing squad, who were clearing landmines ...
I dedicate this page to Michal (tjalfi) who also wanted to go to Đeravica but I never had a chance to meet him. Just before our planned meeting he tragically died in the Prenj mountains. The trip wouldn't be possible without Michal's friends, David and Ivoš, my great companions on the Balkan trails. Ivoše a Davide, velky dik za společnost a cely ho...
