About the camp

Riverside Camping near Skadar Lake National Park

River Camp sits on the lower Morača, just where it slips into the Skadar Lake — Montenegro's largest lake and a national park.

River Camp offers peaceful riverside camping in Montenegro, located on the lower Morača River near Skadar Lake National Park. It is ideal for campervan travellers, motorhome guests, motorbike travellers and nature lovers looking for a quiet camp close to Podgorica, Virpazar and Skadar Lake.

It's a small, family-run site for travellers who want nature instead of resorts: birdsong at dawn, swimming straight from the bank, and starry nights with no light pollution. Stay one night on your way south, or settle in for a week and use the camp as a base for kayaking, fishing, and exploring the lake.
