Kolašin sits at almost a thousand metres among the forests of Bjelasica and Sinjajevina. It has long been Montenegro's favourite mountain town, and in recent years it has become its most dynamic one: new ski infrastructure, hotels and residences are turning it into a four-season resort.

Why Kolašin

The opening of the first section of the Bar–Boljare motorway in 2022 cut the drive from Podgorica to about an hour, putting Kolašin within easy reach of the capital and its airport. At the same time, investment in the Kolašin 1450 and Kolašin 1600 ski areas has raised the standard of what the mountain offers.

Prices remain moderate compared with established Alpine resorts, and demand for well-designed chalets and apartments is growing, both from Montenegrin families and from foreign visitors discovering the Balkan mountains.

The season

Kolašin has two seasons: winter, from December to March, for skiing and snowshoeing, and summer, from June to September, for hiking, cycling and cool mountain air. Spring and autumn bring colour and calm.

Where to buy

  • The town centre for convenience: apartments near the square, shops and restaurants.
  • The road to the ski areas for winter: chalets and residences close to the slopes.
  • The surrounding villages for nature: wooden houses and plots with views of the mountains.

Living here

Kolašin offers clean air, forests and a relaxed pace of life. Biogradska Gora National Park, one of the last primeval forests in Europe, is a short drive away, with its glacial lake framed by ancient trees. The coast is reachable in under two hours.

Our view

Kolašin is the mountain market to watch. Early buyers who choose well-built properties near the ski infrastructure are positioned to benefit from its growth. We follow the projects closely and know which developers deliver.
