Search hotels in Grahovo

Grahovo is a very interesting "hidden" gem in Montenegro for those who love something off of the usual tourist itinerary. It is still within good access of the Bay of Kotor and on the main road from Risan to Niksic, but it is a different world entirely. Once quite a settlement during the time of Yugoslavia (as attested to by the ruins of a large school, department store and some other public buildings), the village seems to be experiencing some kind of "revival" as a perfect weekend getaway with numerous small farms and even luxury villas for Montenegro's upper class. Nearby are several old churches, the house of Sava Kovacevic and the impressive monument to local heroes from the Second World War. In addition to an expanse of open fields and farmland (rare for Montenegro), there is a forest, a lake and an arboretum. Also, there is the impressive new hotel and restaurant -Grahovac 1858 -- and some cafes and weekend rentals. The area offers off-road vehicle adventures as well as hiking opportunities. The unique location ensures a mild winter climate as well as cool summers as maritime air from the Bay of Kotor ascends to mix with the cooler alpine air.
