Hike from Black Lake to Snakes Lake

Black Lake (Crno Jezero) is the biggest and most visited one of the 18 glassy mountain lakes in Durmitor Natioanal Park. It’s also the starting point of many hiking trails for every level.  

This morning we drove to the entry to the Park and walked to the Black Lake. From there, we followed an easy trail uphill through the wood and reached a much smaller lake, Snake Lake (Zminje Jezero). It was totally overcast when we started, fortunately the sun showed up in the afternoon.

Overall the trek was 9.8 km, 300 m elevation gain/loss. The highest point being 1600 m. It took a little bit over than 3  hours with the stops all along the way to take pictures.

In the woods along the trail many mushrooms and wild flowers are growing.

This evening we dined at a nice restaurant but despite the cold air we chosed open air section for clean air. (In Montenegro smoking is allowed in closed places also.)
