The beauty of Kotor lies in the 4.5 km long and 20 m high ramparts that encircle the old town. Of Byzantine origin, these fortifications helped protect the city from Turkish attacks in the 16th and 17th centuries. The fortress of St John, which dominates the town at an altitude of nearly 260 m, was abandoned in 1918. Now in ruins, it is accessible by more than 1,000 steps. The view offered from the top of its walls is splendid, between the Bay of Kotor and Mount Lovćen.

Bien choisir son accès sur le plan car certains chemins sont plus faciles que d autres.
De bonnes chaussures sont à prevoir
Un peu avant le sommet de la forteresse, une petite porte permet de faire une randonnée et d'avoir un point de vue plus haut. C'est indiqué sur le plan distribué à l'entrée de la forteresse.
L'été, des vendeurs de boissons fraîches se positionnent sur le parcours.
Je signale qu'une partie des remparts, autour de la ville basse, est accessible gratuitement.
