The monastery Zdreabaonik is located 2 km from Danilovgrad. This monastery, church of Rodjenje Presvete Bogorodice (Birth of the Holy Mother of God) was raised by Sveti Stefa Piperski (St. Stephen from Piperi) in 1637. The monastery grew from hermit cell of this saint.

The renewal of the monastery begun on 1994, and what is really important to point out is that for a long time there is an idea of connecting monasteries of Ostrog and Zdrebaonik with a direct road, and those works have begun. Its termination is expected to happen soon.

To the monastery Zdrebaonik you can come through Danilovgrad and then over the bridge on Zeta towards the village Sekulici (turning right on the crossroad after the bridge, and after the crossing of the railroad you turn again right), and then you go towards the village Jelenak. Here is a sign, which is not so easily visible so you should pay a little attention on the road signs.

They are covered with fine sand, as is the sea bottom. Owing to its geographic position, you can enjoy fantastic sunsets in the late afternoon. The beaches are about 600m long, and a macadam road connects them with the main road. There is a weekend village among the old oak and olive trees in its background.

Morača (Montenegrin Cyrillic: Морача) is a river in Montenegro. It originates in northern Montenegro, under Rzača mountain. It generally flows southwards for some 113 km (70 mi), before emptying into Lake Skadar.

In its northern part, the Morača is a fast mountain river, and has cut a canyon north of Podgorica. After merging with its largest tributary, Zeta, just north of Podgorica, the Morača enters the Zeta plain. It flows through this flat area of Montenegro until it empties into Lake Skadar.

The Morača is a relatively small river, rarely more than 100 m (328 ft) wide and mostly shallow, so it is generally not navigable. Its canyon is currently a corridor for the main road leading from Montenegro’s coast and Podgorica to northern Montenegro and Serbia. This road is considered very dangerous, and will likely be bypassed in future by a motorway which is currently being planned.

The Morača River is considered one of the symbols of Podgorica, and is the biggest river that flows through the city. It is featured on some flags and country symbols.
