What is the situation with parking in Montenegro?
Traveling around Montenegro by car is a great way to see all the beauty of this country. But a logical question arises: where can you park your car here? Let's figure it out.
Types of parking
Parking in Montenegro can be paid or free, and they can be easily distinguished by the corresponding signs and markings. The closer you are to popular tourist spots and the city center, the more difficult it is to find free free spaces, and paid parking becomes more expensive. However, in almost all cities you can find free parking just a few minutes' walk from the main attractions.
Parking zones
In some cities, parking zones are distinguished by color:
- Red zone: The most expensive parking.
- Yellow zone: Prices are more reasonable.
- Green Zone: The most affordable parking.
Free parking
Location:
- On the sides of the roads
- In special pockets
- On unequipped sites
Free parking is usually located away from the historical center.
Paid parking
There are two types of paid parking: along the streets and parking with a barrier.
- Parking along the streets:
- Location: Downtown.
- Marking: The road surface is marked, and cars are only allowed to park along the markings.

Conclusion

Paid parking can be street parking with a time limit and parking with a barrier without a time limit, but with higher tariffs. Knowing these features, you can easily find a suitable place for your car while enjoying your trip around Montenegro.
