Montenegrin regional tourism and environmental development

Overview

Montenegrin municipalities of Kolašin and Žabljak have reported record-breaking tourism seasons driven by significant infrastructure investments. In Kolašin, officials emphasized the necessity of highway construction and road reconstruction to connect local centers to tourist zones, while President Jakov Milatović highlighted the importance of balancing economic growth with the preservation of historical and cultural identity.

In Žabljak, development efforts have focused on transport, water supply, and waste management. While local progress is noted, the region faces broader national environmental challenges. On the 35th anniversary of Montenegro’s declaration as an ecological state, officials noted the ongoing struggle with illegal landfills and the implementation of the Natura 2000 network to protect biodiversity. Local initiatives have also emerged to protest air pollution and river contamination, highlighting a perceived gap between the country’s formal ecological status and environmental realities.
