“…Geographic information system (GIS) has been applied to carry out those analyses (Cimbaljević et al, 2019;Statuto, 2017). The research mostly concentrated on an evaluation of tourist attraction of the country (Djurović, Djurović, 2016;Marti, Puertas, 2017). Also, sustainable development of tourism is a significant part of the research (Smolović et al, 2018;Vučetić, 2017).…”

The aim of the article is to discuss the changes on the tourism services market in Montenegro. The article presents statistical data on tourist traffic and the use of accommodation facilities both nationally and regionally. It focuses on domestic and inbound tourism with special emphasis placed on the citizens of Serbia, Russia, Bosnia and Herzegovina. It is assumed that the seaside location is of utmost importance for Montenegrin tourism as increased tourist traffic can be observed in the coastal zone. It is also stated that the biggest threat to the development of Montenegrin tourism is not enough diversity in international tourist arrivals.

“…The study was conducted across two distinct regions: Montenegro and North Macedonia (Figure 2). Montenegro, located in the Balkans region of Southeast Europe, is characterized by diverse landscapes, including coastal areas along the Adriatic Sea, mountainous terrain, and inland regions [41,42]. The Republic of Montenegro, covering an expanse of 13,812 square kilometres, is positioned within the category of smaller European nations, occupying the 39th position in terms of landmass.…”

“…This study delves into these intricacies, focusing on the perspectives of students in Montenegro and North Macedonia. Montenegro and North Macedonia, two Balkan countries characterized by diverse landscapes and ecosystems, provide an intriguing backdrop for examining environmental a itudes and perceptions among the youth [41][42][43][44]. Despite sharing geographical proximity and similar environmental concerns, disparities in educational systems, cultural influences, and socioeconomic factors may shape distinct outlooks on environmental issues [20,45].…”

This comparative study aims to investigate environmental awareness, knowledge, and safety among students in Montenegro and North Macedonia, considering the unique socio-cultural and environmental contexts of both countries. A mixed-methods approach involving surveys and interviews was employed to gather data from students in educational institutions across Montenegro and North Macedonia. The study assessed various factors, including students' awareness of environmental issues, their perceived level of knowledge, and their attitudes towards safety measures. A comprehensive series of 400 face-to-face interviews was carried out and these interviews encompassed 200 students from Montenegro and an equal number from North Macedonia, taking place at two esteemed academic institutions: The University of Montenegro in Podgorica and The University of St. Clement of Ohrid, Bitola, Republic of North Macedonia. Our hypothetical conceptual framework proposes that a combination of variables, including gender (H1), age (H2), year of study (H3), and rate of study (H4), significantly influences the attitudes of students from Montenegro and North Macedonia towards environmental awareness, safety, and knowledge. Research findings indicate significant variations in environmental awareness and knowledge perception among students in the two countries. While both Montenegro and North Macedonia face environmental challenges, differences in educational systems and socio-economic factors contribute to distinct attitudes and behaviors towards environmental issues and safety practices. This study sheds light on the importance of understanding regional differences in environmental awareness and knowledge perception among students. By identifying areas of strength and areas needing improvement, policymakers and educators can develop targeted interventions to enhance environmental education and foster a culture of sustainability in both Montenegro and North Macedonia.

Durmitor (Djurović 1999;Hughes 2007Hughes , 2008Djurović 2012;Djurović & Djurović 2016). Very important factors in speleogenesis in the current phase of the cave development are meltwater derived by melting of snow and snowpack at the surface, as well as accumulated snow and ice at the cave entrance.…”

The most significant caves in Montenegro were distinguished in response to their physical-geographic, biological, archeological and morphometric characteristics (length and depth). Caves distribute in four distinctive regions: coastal karst, karst plateau (relict valley system), fluvial karst (recent hydrologic systems) and the high mountainous karst area. The most outstanding within the last, due to abundances of the major caves with depths from a few hundred meters to 1,162 m, are four mountain regions: Mt. Durmitor, Mt. Lovćen-Orjen, Mt. Maganik and Mt. Bjelič.
