Fish picnic in Godinje village

Have you had the experience of choosing a trout fish for your meal in a cold stream?

When did you pick the vegetables in the garden?

Ave Tours travel agency takes you on a fish picnic, but this time not to the sea, the river, but to the village. Fish picnic in the village of Godinje.

This village is the first protected rural entity in Montenegro with the status of a cultural asset.

The advantage of the rural environment is clean and unpolluted nature, which enables the production of ecological and healthy food.

In Godinje, while preparing a homemade meal, enjoy the view of Skadar Lake and drink excellent wine, juice made in a rural household or spring water.

We start a fish trip to Godinje at 09:00 from Bar. We are travelling to Virpazar. Before we arrive in Godinje, (it is about 30 kilometers away from Bar) we take a photo break at the lookout. According to the legend  Prince Vladimir liked to rest in this village, so he called it Godinje. There is also a summer house of the Balšić dynasty, and King Nikola also enjoyed in wine made from the vineyards in Godinje.

When you pass through Godinje with a licensed guide and hear many interesting stories, a new, pleasant surprise awaits you at the end of the village. Our host Dušan Leković is developing a rural household on the foundations where his ancestors lived. In the manner of a good host, he welcomes guests with a glass of vine, homemade fritters and cheese…

On the edge of the Leković estate is the Mlištica stream, where Dušan made a trout pond.

There are 13 water sources in Godinje.

With the murmur of the stream, on the wooden terrace where the breeze alleviates the summer heat, with a view of Skadar Lake, tourists enjoy lunch in untouched nature. You can also see the old, dilapidated mill.

The village of Godinje is an oasis of peace, healthy food and good wine. A place to relax and experience all the senses.

The trip is recommended for all generations, and is ideal for families with children.

After a fish picnic in Godinje, we take you to the Besac Fortress, which offers a beautiful view of the Skadar Lake National Park.
