Montenegro Overview
Montenegro borders Serbia to the north and northeast, Kosovo to the east, Albania to the southeast, the Adriatic Sea and Croatia to the southwest, and Bosnia and Herzegovina to the west.
Montenegro is a mountainous country that is difficult to access and consists mainly of heavily karstified limestone massifs. The coastal area on the Adriatic is separated from the hinterland by a steep step over 1,000 m high. The karst highlands of the Dinaric Mountains rise up to 1,749 m above sea level in Lovćen and 1,895 m above sea level in Orjen on the coast; the Zla Kolata in the Durmitor massif in the interior reaches 2,534 m above sea level.
The rivers Tara, Piva and Komarnica have cut their way into the karst plateaus with deep narrow valleys. The Tara Gorge with its approximately 1,000 m high steep walls is considered to be the deepest canyon in Europe. In the extreme south and north of Lake Skadar, which protrudes into Albania, there are small lowlands. A narrow coastal strip bordered by a mountain range with the Bay of Kotor extends along the Adriatic Sea. Slightly more than half of Montenegro drains via the river systems of Tara and Piva, which unite on the border with Bosnia and Herzegovina to form the Drina (tributary of the Danube), to the Black Sea, the other part via the Zeta-Morača river system and Lake Skadar Adriatic sea.

Climate
Mediterranean climatic conditions prevail on the coast of Montenegro, inland temperate continental conditions prevail. Winters are long and snowy in the higher areas. The average July temperatures in Podgorica, located in the alluvial plain north of Lake Skadar, reach 25 ° C, the average January temperatures 5 ° C. The average temperature over the course of the year is 15.2 ° C, the average annual rainfall 1,832 mm. The rainiest months are November and December (winter rain area), the least rainy June and July.
Vegetation
The plant formations are heavily dependent on the elevation and the geological subsoil of the rich land. Only the eastern part of Montenegro, whose mountains consist of slate, is forested (especially coniferous forests, beeches). The transition to the coast with its evergreen hard-leaf vegetation is formed by the Illyrian zone, which is dominated by thorny bushes adapted to the drought. National parks are located in the area of the Tara Gorge and in the mountain region of the Durmitor (UNESCO World Heritage Site), on the Montenegrin section of Lake Skadar and around Mount Lovćen on the Bay of Kotor.
