Montenegro has finally grabbed the international spotlight! The prestigious German magazine ADAC Reisemagazin dedicated a whopping nine pages plus the cover to this tiny country, praising its natural diversity and tourism potential. But is it all sunshine and beaches as it seems?
Natural Spectacle or Tourist Bubble?
In an article titled “A Spectacle of Nature on the Adriatic,” journalist Heinrich Angels highlights that Montenegro, though smaller than Germany’s Schleswig-Holstein, offers stunning natural beauty: miles of beaches, romantic coves, towering mountains, spectacular canyons, and impressive national parks like Durmitor, Biogradska Gora, and Skadar Lake.
But let’s get real — how many tourists actually come to enjoy these natural gems, and how many just pass through? Tourism in Montenegro is booming, but is it sustainable or just a bubble waiting to burst?
Small Country, Big Offer
The magazine praises Montenegro’s convenience as a destination — everything is reachable by car within an hour or two. A beach holiday can easily be complemented by day trips to the mountains. That’s a real advantage, but does the infrastructure and services keep up with this growth?
Prestigious Magazine with Big Influence
ADAC Reisemagazin, published twice a month with a circulation of about 60,000 copies, is a significant platform for promoting Montenegro. The German automobile club ADAC is known for its seriousness and influence, so this recognition is a big deal.
What Does This Mean for Montenegro?
This promotion could bring even more tourists, but also more pressure on nature and local infrastructure. Can Montenegro balance tourism development with preserving its natural beauty?
Conclusion
Montenegro on the cover of a German magazine is a big deal. But while its natural beauty and tourism potential are praised, we should ask — are we ready for the flood of tourists? Will this small country withstand the pressure, or will the natural spectacle turn into a tourist bubble?
