Kolasin 1450

Fifteen years ago, the Kolasin 1450 Ski Resort elebrated its inaugural season, as a new and improved version of the original Bjelasica Ski Resort. It first opened in 1990 with only a couple of pists and one ski lift that still operates today.

Towards the end of the 2000s, the Montenegrin Government was concerned about the financial viability of the Kolasin ski area so a plan was devised to expand and rebrand it into a more exciting full-time resort that could take on regional rivals.

The resort would merge in 2022 with Kolasin 1600 into one larger resort, connected by the brand-new K7 lift. Montenegro is ambitious and plans to quintuple the total slope length in the near future, turning it possibly into the Balkan’s largest ski resort.

And, even though the resort has grown in size and now draws in even more tourists than it used to, it is, and will always remain a sanctuary for skiers and snowboarders searching for a thrilling experience within the safety and commune of a ski resort.

And, while it comes down to individual taste and personal preference, many skiers claim that the slopes here are better than the ones in neighboring Kolasin 1600. All trails lead through beautiful and scenting pine forests and you will have to choose between 6 blue, 7 red, and 3 black slopes.

The resort’s primary ski lift, a super comfortable six-seater, takes you up Vilina Voda in just 5-6 minutes – you won’t wait longer than a couple of minutes even during peak hours. Atop, you will have a great combination of blue and red slopes at your disposal. The well-paved slopes are nice and wide and even longer than you might expect.

The two-person double chair is painstakingly slow but gets you close to the resort’s highest ascents. You can get off at the Cupovi station and take one of the slopes from there, or, take another lift to Kljuc – the highest peak which lies at an altitude of 1,973 meters.

If you have little patience, the 20-minute ride will wreck your nerves for sure. Nevertheless, taking the lift is definitely worth it – the view from atop is truly breathtaking. Note however that the slopes are directed towards backcountry adventurers and free riders and are not regularly maintained.
