About this place

The clearing at the junction of hiking trails in Katun Zastan, in the municipality of Gusinje, is a wild spot that attracts trekking enthusiasts. Marked on some maps as Wild Camp, it offers the opportunity to set up camp amidst beautiful nature. During the day, you can encounter local residents who drive tourists 4x4 to the trails. The location is at an altitude of 1196 m above sea level, providing stunning views and a clear, dark sky conducive to stargazing.
