PIVSKO JEZERO: THE TURQUOISE LAKE PRIVATE TOUR

PIVSKO JEZERO: THE TURQUOISE LAKE PRIVATE TOUR

Lake Piva is the largest artificial lake in Montenegro, or the second largest of all lakes, right after Lake Skadar. It was created by the construction of a hydro power plant in 1975. Near Mratinje, 10 km from Šćepan Polje, there is a dam that is 220 m high, among the highest in Europe. In some places, the lake is over 180 m deep and 42 km long. Pivsko jezero is the largest reservoir of drinking water and has excellent conditions for sports on calm waters. It is especially attractive for fishing and those who want to enjoy the view of the remaining details of the submerged canyon of the Piva River by taking a cruise.

With the creation of the artificial Piva Lake, it was necessary to move the Piva Monastery to another location. This undertaking was done by a group of experts so well and expertly that the building part of the church and the entire painting were not disturbed or changed in the slightest. It should also be mentioned that the Odmut cave, whose depth was about 11 meters and in which many traces from the beginning of the Neolithic were found, was lost forever by submerging the land on which Pivsko jezero now lies.
