172 m
Dajbabska gora is the 172 m hill above the Zelenika, Zabjelo and Gornja and Donja Dajbaba suburbs on the south-west edge of Podgorica. It is a good vantage point over the city: a well-kept, easy trail about 0.5 km long leads to the top, where a telecom tower stands, and the best seasons are spring, autumn and winter. It is a far shorter climb than Zelenika hill west of the city.
