Žabljak (Cyrillic: Жабљак, pronounced [ʒâbʎaːk]) is a small town in Montenegro in the northern region.
[citation needed] The modern name dates from 1870, when in a single day the building of a school, church and captain's home began.
While closed already decades ago, Žabljak holds the distinction of having had Montenegro's only ski jumping hill.
One problem hampering the development of Žabljak as major regional mountain tourism destination is the lack of quality road infrastructure.
Since 2010, with the reconstruction of the Risan-Žabljak road, the average trip from Žabljak to the Adriatic Sea is shortened to approximately two hours.
There are regular minibus links with Nikšić and Podgorica which arrive at the centrally located Žabljak bus station.
