#4 Volujak (Bosnia and Herzegovina)
When it comes to hiking around here, Volujak is more popular than some other mountains. Hikers love it for its steep rugged cliffs. It is famous for its green grassland combined with white rocks, and various vegetation up to the altitude of 1.600 m. This is why more experienced hikers love it. Not just that you’ll have to walk and even climb some parts, you’ll have to go through dense forests and trees which makes the road more difficult. Anyway, whether you like hiking or not, Volujak is beautiful.
#5 Komovi (Montenegro)

Its highest peak is 2067 m high, and we can guarantee that you’ll love it, no matter what are the weather conditions and season of the year.
We didn’t put mountain Prokletije on the list since we don’t organize any tours to visit Prokletije, and since the vast majority of it’s size is located in southern part of Kosovo and northern part of Albania, which are not our main topic today. But still, Prokletije are beautiful, harsh mountains, without any doubt.
