Good visits continued in January, so in the first week of this year, six thousand overnight stays were registered with mostly domestic guests in Zabljak.
"This year we had a noticeable increase in the number of guests from Albania, and there are regular guests from Serbia, but we also have a huge number of guests from Dubrovnik, Croatia, this year and certainly in this period of the winter season we have a large number of guests from China," said Miljana Pješivac from TO Žabljak.
There were no problems with the supply of electricity and water, and unlike the previous one, this season the snowfall was followed by the appropriate temperature, which was beneficial to the skiers.
"The only remarks were related to the non-organization of ski buses this year, which would transport skiers from the city center to Javorovača ski resort and Savin kuk free of charge, but we managed to realize it and close this issue successfully," added Pješivac.
In Zabljak, unskilled skiers can also try their traditional snowshoe walks. "There is plenty to experience and see, especially the part of Durmitor which is closed in the winter to say so, but with snowshoes, one can go to see that part in the real winter ambiance. What if we get tired? We can relax having tea or mulled wine," says Zoran Vojinovic from the Mountain Protection and Rescue Service.
From the municipality Zabljak, they promise an even better winter season next year. "The works on Savin Kuk Ski Resort, a new six-seater ski lift will start in the spring. Also, a snowing system will be launched in the spring so that we will be more prepared with the new infrastructure next winter," said Veselin Vukićević, President of Zabljak Municipality. Citizens of Zabljak expect the expansion of hotel capacities this year. The construction of the hotel Durmitor worth EUR 20 million is ongoing, while the military complex Mediteran is on a long-term lease.
