Great stage! The Komovi Mountains are really impressive, the hike to the beautiful summit of the Kom Kucki is a bit challenging, but doable. For the descent to Vermosh, I found a more logical approach than the original route - it follows a cow path between the ruins of Katun Orahovska and the ruins of Katun Redzica, instead of going around. You can download a gpx-track with extra explanation in some waypoints @ https://drive.google.com/file/d/1q-18OBlTrwnKOiU3pqP_cd3zW_qZKFfk. I also made a detailed description of the descent - download it @ https://drive.google.com/file/d/18U6wM5thb73lTcji2BVRHLFtKcpr7gp4.

We did the hike on the beginning of June 2025 from Albania to Montenegro. The hike is easy to find until the border, we followed a track. After we tried to follow the advice of Jean-Marc from the previous comment with GPS, there was no way anymore. It was quite hard because it was quite steep and with brushes, but ok. We found the path back at Katun Dediča. Then it was a really beautiful hike and easy. The last go down to Stanva is a little bit long and physical (going up and down above the forest) but not major difficulties.

Hiked all over the world, really impressed with this one!

Stage done at the beginning of August 2024: After a view minutes on the road, there was a marked hiking trail already mentioned in previous comments. It started to the right after the wooden Komovi park sign. It was good to walk and get away from the cars on the “main” road. The only water I found in Štavna was next to the upper road towards the start of the hiking trails below the picnic place. From Katun Štavna, I made a round trip: starting on the marked path to the left towards Varda to reach Koliba Carine and went back along the VD towards Kom Kučki junction and back to Trešnjevik. I cannot comment on Kom Kučki as I skipped it after reading in previous comments that it is a bit more exposed and I did not want to climb it alone. I did not like the section at the edge of the forest after the descent from Kučki junction (direction Carine to Štavna) because it was very narrow, right at the edge and partly overgrown. Made it a bit unsafe for me with my big backpack. On the whole round trip, I didn’t find water (also not the spring close to the Koliba Carine). I took water from the mountain river that I crossed coming from Varda direction. As there were cows roaming, I filtered it to be on the safe side. The Koliba looked nice inside.

Hiking NB. Completed Sept. 27-28. From Vermosh, the climb to Carine hut was taxing. No real route up, was pushing through bushes and brush. It sounds like there's an alternative that people below have mentioned...I hadn't read these yet. After you climb and catch the Montenegran mountain highway (CT-1, all gravel road) for 5-6kms to Carine. Carine hut is in great condition for how remote it is. Big thanks to the host who keeps it up. There was even wood and a starter set out on the stove when I arrived (even rakija in the pantry for those in need). Water just 2-3 min walk from the hut. One of the more beautiful night skies on a clear night. Highly recommend staying in Carine if you can. From Carine to Komovi: After a short but steep ascent neat the top of Carine mountain, you start climbing down to Komovi. More technical descent than I had anticipated. After a 1.5-2hr descent, you get to Komovi. I didn't stay in Komovi but even in late September there seemed to be plenty of accommodation or camping space.

Truly amazing place!!!

Such a beautiful stage ! We absolutely loved Komovi mountains. At the start, even before 1km, you can follow the hike path instead of following the road. It’s faster, well maintained and marked path. Somewhere on this path there’s a water source. Going to Kucki Kom is a true highlight. It’s quite exposed and aerial at the end. Carine hut is really cool, we didn’t sleep there but we could make ourselves a coffee with its gas stove. Water right after the hut on the path. You could easily camp at the church. We camped at the abandoned village at km 21.5, it was so beautiful, with views on the last mountains of the Via Dinarica. The way down was still technical and inexistant. We just whore long pants for the high grass and eventually we reached a path after the rivers crossing. For us it was very easy to hitchhike from vermosh to Gusinje.

Beautiful, the climp towards the peak full of adrenaline. The path was well marked and in some segments renovated.
