Bjelogrivac is a prominent mountain peak and ridge at a height of 1,970 meters above sea level, located on the Mojkovac side of the Bjelasica mountain in Montenegro. It belongs to the so-called the fourth ridge of Bjelasica, which stretches in the northwest-southeast direction (in line with the peaks of Mučnica, Turjak and Strmenica).
Details about Bjelogrivac and its importance for Mojkovac include:
1. Nature and viewpoints
The top of Bjelogrivca is recognizable by its vast grassy plateaus and pastures.
From the very top there is an open view of the greater part of the Bjelasica massif (Crna glava, Zekova glava, Troglava, Strmenica), but also of neighboring Sinjajevina, Durmitor and the Tara river canyon.
The view of Vragodo mountain, located at the foot of the peak, as well as the surrounding Mojkovac mountains and forests is particularly attractive.
2. Hiking trail and access
The approach to Bjelogrivec starts from Mojkovac and leads through the historical site of Brskovo (an old medieval mine), and further along the macadam road towards the mountain lodge "Džambas" and Žarski katun.
