The Crno jezero (“Black Lake”) is a glacial lake on Mount Durmitor in the municipality of Zabljak ,in northern Montenegro.
The Crno jezero lies at an altitude of 1416 m , at the foot of the Međed, a mountain peak of the Durmitor massif. It occupies an area of around 500 hectares. The lake actually consists of two basins, called Veliko jezero and Malo jezero. The two parts are connected by a narrow waterway that dries up during the summer months, creating two separate bodies of water.
Crno jezero is a very popular excursion destination in the Durmitor area. It is one of the largest and most famous glacial lakes in the Durmitor massif. The lake is easily accessible and can be reached on foot from the center of Žabljak. An approximately 3.5 km long path circles the entire lake and is a popular destination for those seeking relaxation and hikers. Crno jezero is the starting point for numerous hiking trails into the Durmitor massif and the smaller lakes around Žabljak. Set back from the shore of the lake is a restaurant serving traditional local cuisine.
