The Rakovic Katun lies next to the slopes of Crna Glava (2139m). It is situated between Sisko, Ursulovacko, Pesica and Sevarina Lakes. All around the katun grow rare, endemic flora like the dwarf mountain pine and the yellow gentian. Photography of the landscapes, flora and fauna, and locals continuing to live mountain life steeped in their tradition and culture.Katun life offers a slower pace of mountain life. The Rakovic Katun purposely avoids having running water giving it a sustained rustic experience. Nighttime lighting comes from oil lamps and candles as well as with new eco-friendly solar energy. Heating comes by a traditional wood stove which also heats water for an outdoor shower. The Rakovic Katun in Biogradska Gora National Park offers an unforgettable experience for adventurers. The terrain is perfect for off-road adventures in a 4×4, motorcycle, mountain bike, or on foot hiking.

Raković family lives in Lužac, close to Berane. During summer months, from May to October, they spend most of their time up in their katun on the Bjelasica mountain, known as Katun Raković. The family is made up of five members, Sanja and Stefan and their children Maša, Vasilije and Đorđe. Stefan works as a supervisor, more precisely as a ranger in the Biogradska Gora Park, he is in charge of the area where Katun Raković is located while Sanja works as a librarian in a primary school and they spend their free time, during summer months holiday, up in the mountain.
Katun Raković is situated on the territory of the national park Biogradska Gora. Five glacial lakes (small and large Šiško Lake, small and large Ursulovačko Lake and Pešića Lake) are located close to it and they are a real attraction for the tourists. In the close proximity of the katun, a national biking transversal CT1 can be found. Beside these, Via Dinarica, hiking and biking trail built not so long ago, passes by its huts. Katun Raković offers an unforgettable experience and the possibility to enjoy the pristine nature of one of the last three European virgin forests. It is an ideal place for nature lovers, for mountaineering and hiking, for bikers and for camping and picnics.
