Bjelasica is a mountain in Montenegro, 30 km long and 30 km wide. It is bordered by two beautiful rivers, the Lim and Tara. The highest peak is Cena Glava at 2139 m. It is easy to walk and accessible. Its wealth consists of forests and flowing rivers. Bjela is a volcanic mountain of origin. Bjelasica also has a ski center. For a few days of rest, you will enjoy the mist of the pine forest, the freshness, and wonderful walks on this beauty, my recommendation
