Brajići is a village in Budva municipality, close to the Kosmač fortress.
Kosmač is a former fortress in Montenegro, located on the hill of the same name above the village of Brajići, not far from Budva. It is located at an altitude of about 800 m. It was built by the Austrians between 1841 and 1850. The fort served as a border fortification on the Austrian-Montenegrin border.
Monastery Praskvica (1050) is considered representative of the Orthodox architecture of the Balkan Peninsula and is the most famous monastic complex in the Pastrovići area of Budva municipality. The monastery is located in a picturesque olive grove on a mountain in the former fishing village of Čelbrdo, on the outskirts of Miločer, near Pržno and on the popular island of Sveti Stefan.
The tour starts from Brajići, by the path to the fortress Kosmač (Austrian fortress from the XIX century). There is a viewpoint and a short break for the sightseeing of the fortress.
Then, slowly we continue to the Hunting lodge, climbing to the old Austrian road, and from there by the straight old Austrian road to Ograđenica, where the Spiridon Monastery is located. From Kosmač to Ograđenica, it is about 2h:30 min walk.
When we arrive, we take a bit longer break.
Then, we descend through the wide macadam road to the Rustovo Monastery. From the Rustovo Monastery we go to the viewpoint at Čelobrdo, from where we descend Jegorov path (the whole time view of St. Stefan and Miločer) near the Praskvica monastery.
