The Kotor city walls hike. Everything you need to know.

1,350 steps. Takes 45 minutes. Best time: before 9am or after 5pm. Ticket: £8. View from the top: priceless.

The hike up the Kotor city walls to the Castle of San Giovanni is the best activity in Montenegro. The view of the bay from the top is one of the great vistas of the Adriatic.

Wear good shoes. Bring water. Do not attempt it in the midday heat. The entry ticket keeps out enough people to make it pleasant.
