The National Parks of Montenegro (NPCG) are implementing the One Ticket – Five National Parks campaign, which allows all nature lovers an unlimited number of visits for 13,5 euros.
"The National Park of Montenegro aims to bring the nature of Durmitor, Biogradska gora, Lovćen, Skadar Lake and Prokletije closer to citizens and present the benefits of the annual ticket, thanks to which, for only 13,5 euros, nature lovers can visit all five protected areas an unlimited number of times," the statement reads.
Those interested can purchase annual tickets at the checkpoints at the entrance to the parks, on weekdays at the NPCG administration in Podgorica, as well as online on the website www.nparkovi.me.
The NPCG reminded that entrance to national parks is free for children under 15 years of age.
In the spirit of nature protection and preserving the unique values of national parks, the NPCG has dedicated this year to the lady's slipper (Cypripedium calceolus) - a rare species of orchid of exceptional beauty and significance.
"Its presence has been confirmed in only a few locations in Montenegro. It is protected by national legislation, as well as international conventions and directives, which confirms its exceptional status and the need for strict protection," the statement added.
In the Durmitor NP area, this species is recording a growing population trend.
Since the first discovery on Ćurevac in 2023, when only a few individuals were recorded, thanks to the implemented protection measures, increased surveillance and regular monitoring, the population size has increased many times over.
"Last year, a new finding was confirmed in the Šušica Canyon, where a small but stable population was recorded, which further emphasizes the importance of NPCG for the conservation of this precious species," said the NPCG.
