The documentary “The Wondrous World of Katuns” is the centerpiece of the project “Rural Tourism for Economic Development of Cross-Border Territory,” implemented with EU support.
The film captures a pivotal moment of transformation—turning katuns from places of hard labor into recognized cultural and tourist assets. It was the first project in the region to systematically approach katuns as a potential for sustainable tourism development in Northern Montenegro.
Key Project Results: Over 50 families in katuns received solar panels, providing essential conditions for staying and hosting guests. The “Katun Road – Border Peaks,” a 160 km thematic trail connecting katuns from Čakor to Hajla, was established with supporting infrastructure and camps.
A Lasting Tradition
The documentary chronicles the daily lives of highland women, their skills in making traditional cheese and cream, and the unwavering optimism of people preserving their ancestral homes. “The Wondrous World of Katuns” is an authentic record of a parallel world offering peace, organic food, and untouched nature.
