Montenegro Rijeka Crnojevica River Bend, Skadar Lake
The river bend near Rijeka Crnojevica at Skadar Lake National Park is probably the most beautiful place in Montenegro and for me even one of the best ones in the world. Just standing there, enjoying the silence and some passing boats is something I could do the whole day I guess.
Photography Tips
There is a spot a little bit more down (linked beyond this spot), which has a better perspective I would say because you can look deeper into the right side of the river with even more curves.
I would say that being at this spot during sunrise is a great idea since you can watch further to the east. Maybe there is even a time slot during the year when the sun rises just in this direction.

Travel Information
I came from the north by car, which is the shortest route to this photo spot, but it's also the most difficult one to drive. It's so narrow, that only one car can pass the street and there are just a few places where you could pass cars coming from the front. If you aren't familiar with driving backwards for quite some time when cars are coming from the front, I would suggest you use the road which is coming from the west. If you are driving this route though, I would recommend you to have somebody else with you who can get outside the car and give you some instructions while driving backwards, because sometimes it wasn't that easy to see a good holding spot, especially after sunset.
You can leave your car just right beside this spot, there is only space for one car though.
