• Can anyone help regarding this border:

    If you zoom in checkpoint 4 you can see a small road leading out of Pluzine to Bosnia. If I were able to take I'd save about 100km and 1000 metres of climbing.

    However is it a proper border crossing?

    I've checked strava heat maps and there is a bit of activity I even emailed the Pluzine tourist board about it but they never got back to me.

  • There was some chatter on Facebook a while back about this one. I think there are some border crossings which are only for locals but you can apply in advance and get a permit. There was then a debate as to whether that was legal or not - I reckoned it was the same as applying for a visa in advance but most people disagreed!

    Here: I've found the relevant bit

    Béla Kuzler Notice: Border crossing here: 43.037827, 18.654562 , between Bosnia and Montenegro use only separate licenses. You must report your trip and ask for permission from both side. Or choose another border crossing, this is simpler. smile emoticon

    Urs Arnold Kutschera Hi Bela, what about going over the "green" border. There is a dirt road from Gacko to Pluzine a bit north of the point you mentioned. Could it be a problem going over borders like this?

    Béla Kuzler I don't know exactly , but my friend said , use only official border crossing. This isn't official. smile emoticon

    Urs Arnold Kutschera I know 2 cyclists which passed there but the political situation changed, so might be not a good idea! wink emoticon

  • Ah, my northerly route is wrong here.
    I've come in from E762 and not gone to Pluzine before starting the required parcours.

    My southerly route comes up on the M6 through the "Ilino Brdo Border Crossing" so does hit Pluzine.

    Decisions, decisions.

  • If you mean the road the heads basically west from Pluzine, around the water, past Camp Vrbnica, splits into two before crossing the border, it seems to disappear and turn into dirt road?
