Health
Montenegro is generally a healthy country with few risks.
Only bottled or purified water should be consumed, and food should
be well prepared and well cooked. Those intending to hike in the
countryside should take precautions against ticks. Medical
facilities in Montenegro are limited, and supplies are lacking.
Medical insurance with evacuation cover is strongly recommended.
There are some private clinics in Podgorica, which treat
travellers, but payment in cash is expected. A reciprocal health
agreement entitles visitors from the UK to free emergency
treatment.
