With a population of just 8,380, Kolasin is a tiny town in northern Montenegro that feels worlds away from the glamorous Adriatic coast. The reality is a place struggling to develop its fledgling tourism industry, hampered by bureaucratic headaches and a harsh continental climate. While the nearby Biogradska Gora national park offers natural beauty, the town itself has little to draw visitors beyond basic ski facilities. Kolašin may appeal to hardy outdoor enthusiasts, but for most, the drawbacks outweigh the upsides of living in this remote mountain outpost.
