Gorica Park — Attraction in Podgorica

We liked this big park on the hill in downtown Podgorica. The hill's name is Gorica and the city founded under that hill got its name Podgorica, which literally means 'Under the hill'. The park is located right on this relatively low hill (its height is about 130 meters) that combined with the rich evergreen vegetation creates a unique microclimate shading you in the hot summer and protecting from cold winds in winter. There's a great adventure park for kids over 4 years old. In October 2025 it still worked (7 Euro for a 4 year old), but some paths already looked worn out. It's still safe but needs attention. The path for adults looks abandoned and you can see only some remains of it. But the working paths are still good and kids love it. There's also a small playground and several cafes around.

See native Hermann tortoises, plant species, beautiful big shade trees and lots of people out exercising. What an absolutely treasure this space is for the city, I hope they keep maintaining it as well as they...
