Always on the look-out for new mountain bike destinations and an escape from the office, Andrew’s been busy researching trips in the Balkans and here’s a few photos of his time in Montenegro just last week. We’ll even be adding a road cycling and self guided cycling holiday here soon too!!

Montenegro is a small country and the locals say that “if you ironed it out then it would be as big as Russia!”. Well…they aren’t wrong!! The mountains are stunning throughout the country, but then there are the lakes, super, super friendly locals, the finest cheeses and meats around (though cheese fresh from the goat is an acquired taste!!) and some great accommodation in places that are simply stunning…and there is the coast too !!

Check out the below photos and lots more on Skedaddle Facebook and if you are interested in receiving more information this and other Balkans destinations then drop Andrew an email to andrew@skedaddle.co.uk or call him on 0191 265 11 10 for a chat.

Here’s a few pictures to get you tempted and if you want to see loads more check out the full array on Skedaddle Facebook too.

Watch out for the giant Yellow man / woman eating flower….

Why did the chicken cross the trail?

Kinda pretty eh?!?!

Christina speeds off to get the best bed at our accommdation below in the valley

Anyone got a snow plough?

No path, no worries…..Isn’t that what 4×4’s are for and not school runs??

This superb desert biking adventure focuses on the deep south of Morocco, a land of big skies and stark mountain ranges where mud-brick kasbahs appear to rise up out of the desert, sitting in tranquil palm oases and framed by dramatic backdrops of snowcapped mountains. We ride along Morocco’s dirt roads, taking us from Marrakech to the Tichka Pass, the highest in the High Atlas, and then southward, descending along the Draa Valley to the fringes of the Sahara Desert.
