Is one week enough for Montenegro?

One week is enough for a good Montenegro trip, not every landscape in the country. Keep the route tight: Bay of Kotor plus either a mountain section or a slower coast-and-lake rhythm.

Answer

A week gives you enough room to understand why Montenegro works, provided you stop trying to prove how much fits. Spend a few nights around the bay, then choose your second act. Durmitor gives the trip mountain weight; Lake Skadar and Lovćen add a softer inland layer; Budva or another coastal base gives beaches and summer ease. What usually fails is a daily shuffle from old town to beach to canyon to border crossing with no slack. Montenegro rewards movement, but not panic.
