The ride begins where the town exhales: a swift, 11‑minute cable car lift that drops Kotor’s tiled roofs below and delivers riders to roughly 1,300 meters above the bay. At the top guides fit Cube e-bikes while the wind plays at the edge of the ridge and the first switchbacks of the day already hint at speed and exposure.

The ride begins where the town exhales: a swift, 11‑minute cable car lift that drops Kotor’s tiled roofs below and delivers riders to roughly 1,300 meters above the bay. At the top guides fit Cube e-bikes while the wind plays at the edge of the ridge and the first switchbacks of the day already hint at speed and exposure.
Lovćen’s slopes are raw limestone—karst ridges carved into ribs and bowls that force water into hidden channels. The route threads through national-park forest, across old pastoral terraces and past the abandoned village of Majstori, a quiet slice of rural Montenegro most travelers miss. Higher up, the Austro‑Hungarian Gorazda fortress perches on rock and iron, a physical record of coastal defenses and the strategic importance of the Boka Kotorska inlet.
Expect 12 km from the cable car station to Majstori: initial asphalt gives way to compact dirt roads. From there the tour reverses course, passes the cable car and then winds into a sustained 900‑meter descent across roughly 25 switchbacks to Gorazda before dropping back to Kotor. Terrain varies—steep gravel corners, occasional washouts and tight hairpins—so the e‑motor eases climbs but technical descending skills are required.
Plan for four hours on the clock, bring layered wind protection, extra water and a basic toolkit for punctures. Ride earlier in the day for firmer dirt and clearer views; respect park signage, stick to the route and leave no trace. With preparation, this loop mixes panoramic coastal views, quiet historical ruins and the hands‑on thrill of mountain e‑biking.
Yes—riders should be confident off‑road and comfortable managing speed and balance on descents; guides provide orientation but not downhill coaching.
Terrain ranges from paved approaches to hard‑packed dirt and loose gravel on switchbacks; expect technical descents where braking technique and line choice matter.
Yes—the tour includes cable car tickets and national park fees along with bike and helmet use, per the itinerary.
