The Tara canyon, the deepest canyon in Europe, and the canyons of Susica and Komarnica, contributes to the beauty of Durmitor.

The rich flora, containing over 1500 species derived from the far geologic past, has been  Skijanjesaved. The fauna is also rich; there are over 130 kinds of birds, and eagles are distinguished among them. Bears and wolves are also typical for the Durmitor woods.

"Ledena pecina"  (the Ice Cave), located under the peak Obla Glava, 2100 m above sea level, represents a fascinating natural phenomena. It can be easily reached by a marked mountain path. One can enjoy its “museum” of stalactites and stalagmites, even in the summer.
