The area belongs to subtropical climates; winters are warm, with prevailing pleasantly warm, seaside temperatures. In the inland areas, the climate is mild continental, for example, in Podgorica the average January temperature is 5°C and in July it is 27°C.

High karst mountains are located in the territory of Montenegro, some reaching 1700 m. There the climate is sub-alpine climate with cold winters and up to 5m of snow; the summers are mild. The average temperature in January is from 3°C to 6°C, in July anything from 23°C to 9°C can occur.


The best time to visit

The best time for a motorcycle tour to Montenegro is the period from May to the first half of October. During the summer months it is advisable to avoid the coast due to the large number of tourist; it is also difficult to find accommodation at that time as well. The mountainous region has no such problems.


Roads and Riding

Visitors to Montenegro will find the road network to be of high quality. The mountain roads are winding, with sparse traffic, whereas the coastal roads can be crowded.
