About Kotor for Solo Travelers

The most dramatic fortified city on the Adriatic — a medieval labyrinth of Venetian palaces and Orthodox churches enclosed by ancient walls that climb impossibly steep cliffs above Europe's southernmost fjord. Kotor is tiny, gorgeous, and utterly overwhelming; hiking the walls at sunset is one of the great solo travel experiences in Europe.

City Walls of Kotor

Culture

The most dramatic medieval walls in the Adriatic — 4.5km of fortifications climbing vertically up the Lovćen mountain to the Castle of San Giovanni (260m above sea level). The 1,350-step climb takes 45 minutes in summer heat; the view at the top over Boka Bay is one of the great panoramas of European travel.
