Bike tour - Kotor Bay circle and visit Our Lady of the Rock

Cycling around Kotor Bay is an exceptional way to explore the region’s rich history and ancient settlements while enjoying stunning coastal scenery. The tour begins in the Old Town of Kotor or Tivat, where riders start their journey along mostly flat terrain with just one gentle uphill. Along the way, you will pass remarkable landmarks such as the abandoned Tresorela Palace, a UNESCO-protected site, and the Temple of the Holy Mother, the largest Catholic church in the area. A short ferry ride allows you to cross the bay and continue the ride along picturesque coastal roads toward Risan and Perast, stopping at a local bar to refresh and admire the panoramic views of the bay.

The adventure continues with a short boat trip to the small island of Our Lady of the Rock in Perast, offering a unique cultural and historical experience. After returning to the mainland, cycling continues back toward the starting point, passing more historic landmarks including Our Lady of the Angel and Verige Pass. The route is mostly on main roads shared with cars, so riders should exercise caution and remain aware of traffic. This tour combines active cycling with cultural discovery, scenic ferry and boat rides, and opportunities to capture incredible photographs, making it an unforgettable way to experience Kotor Bay.
