Why visit

Choose Kotor Cable Car because it adds fast elevation gain, wide bay of kotor views and easy access to a high viewpoint when operating to a Kotor itinerary. It is most valuable when the day is arranged around nearby stops rather than treated as an isolated detour.

What you will see

  • Fast elevation gain.
  • Wide Bay of Kotor views.
  • Easy access to a high viewpoint when operating.

History

The attraction creates a new visitor link between the coast and the Lovćen landscape, but operating times and weather restrictions remain changeable.

Visitor tips

  1. 1

    Visit early or later in the day for cooler conditions, easier parking and a calmer atmosphere.

  2. 2

    Combine this stop with other places around Kotor rather than adding unnecessary cross-country driving on the same day.

  3. 3

    Keep some cash available, protect valuables, and use only clearly authorised parking, guides, boats or activity providers.

  4. 4

    Do not follow an automatic road route to a mountain, boat or trail destination unless the final entrance, trailhead or terminal has been verified.
