Join us on an epic one-day adventure riding the Trans Euro Trail (TET) in Montenegro — one of Europe’s most scenic dirt road routes!
Two Finns tackle the stunning Balkan trails on a Honda CRF300 and a 2025 Honda XL750 Transalp. Starting from Podgorica, we ride rocky gravel roads, deep forests, narrow mountain paths with insane drops, breathtaking viewpoints, and postcard-perfect scenery that had us stopping every few minutes.
A detour into the legendary Durmitor National Park — rugged peaks, crystal-clear lakes, pine forests, and pure magic (UNESCO-worthy views!)

Oh finally it is out! So beautiful scenery and the roads… and yes yes you too.. 😅
Hienot on maisemat, upea kokemus varmasti 👍🏽👌
Bikes and a Lada Niva in the background, what more can one ask for,
Finally! What a great trip! I was in balkan also 2025, but i made it only to bosnia, fagin ran out of time! Like you said there are "speedbumps" everywhere, haha. Great Video mate, i have 30 days left until i go to west/south europe and morocco, damn i cant wait. I also received the Intake Trumpet piece, after ordering the cbr300 stack i changed my mind after i rewatched your video. The mirrors you have are only available in the usa or am i missing something, and do you get in trouble with these mirrors, i know in balkan nobody cares but France or spain?
🤩🤩
Moi, pari kysymystä. Mihin aikaan vuodesta olitte siellä? Onko ääni suoraan kamerasta ja miten sait tuulen äänen pois?
For Tire i highly recoment you Michelin Tracker .. dosnt brake the bank .. works on and offroad like a charm .. and on the crf300l holds well over 4000km vor the back, front even longer.
Nice video! I have to go there sometimes.
Nice stuff! And thank you for visiting my abandoned hotel camp😊
Awesome video and day of riding 🙌 Made me want to get back there asap, such a beautiful country 👍
This was a fun watch.
Mio! Kiva video. Tips: Osta ND filter kameraan, että ei videot ei ole overexposed. Tulee makeampi fiilis. Tehnyt saman mokan itse 😊
Did you ride there from Finland?
Wow the landscapes are amazing 😮 great trip thank you for sharing 🙂🤙🏻
Nice trip. But you skipped the best part of the TET. Done this 3 times with my stock CRF250L.
Absolutely awesome video looks such an amazing place 😊 glad all was ok 👌
I enjoyed watching your video, beautiful scenery and adventure nicely put together. Excellent!!
One of the best videos you have every made. Good job mate!
Awesome riding. What tire pressure you keep in front and rear tires, when you riding offroads like this ?
I know exactly how you fall on the loose gravel feels. First the front wheel skips out of line, you try to counter it with a bit more gas and all of a sudden both wheels do their own thing. Happening rather quickly. Montenegro looks stunning. Must go and ride there. Cheerio, Günter/Nürnberg
I think I need to do a motorbike adventure
I liked the atmosphere and "energy level" of this video! Inspiring video for me in many ways. Thanks for filming and creating this!
The riding looked amazing! I love a good challenge, me
Truly stunning content my friend. Amazing creations.
Very inspiring and insightful stuff.
Im new to motography and YouTube and ironically its the toughest road ive toured yet with my Honda Africa Twin. But channels like yours that keep me motivated and trying at it all to grow.. thanks man just subscribed 👍
Kylläpä on hienon näköistä maisemaa 😍 Tuolla ei ole vara käydä ojassa, liian pitkä pudotus pohjalle 🫣😬
That cagiva is probably more like 230 like my xrv rd07 😅👌 my next bike will be the crf 400 rally (hoping for that bike to launch within a few years 😂🎉)
nice roads there
It's a long ride/drive from Finland down to Montenegro but looks like worth it.
At what time of the year you were there?
Thanks for sharing 💙💛🏁🤛🏼
Awesome video. Thanks for sharing your experience.
I live in Montenegro and bought the Chinese version of the Honda CRF as it was half the price. Certainly not half the bike. I’d love to do the TET but working my way up to it. If you’re thinking of doing off roading or enduro in Montenegro I’d highly recommend Ranko at GMoto in Grahovo. You can go on your own bike or he has a small fleet of enduro bikes. Ideal if you want an odd road guided tour to discover the wilds and undiscovered parts of Montenegro.
nice nice nice! how did you mount your camera on your airoh? i cant seem to find a good solution
I have a question for you. I just watched your last video about the Sertao. That was three years ago. What's your opinion of the Sertao today? Compared to the T7, for example.
Nice Video, did you Ride your Bike all the Way down there?
Nice to see and hope your are feeling well! A question – I am upgrading tires from the Stock IRC on the CRF300L, I was thinking of Mitas Enduro Trail XT+ for ~80 gravel/forrest (Sweden) and ~20% road. Would you recommend it or something else?
Loved the vid Ismo, Balkan is on the bucket list and this got even more fuel to that wish! See You out there my friend 💪🤠🔥🍺
Wow! What amaizing video and views. Very good content. I never wouldnt dare to drive that steep hills.😅 Good that Juho survived also with heavy bike.👍
Great to see you out and about! Beatutiful ride and capture. Cheers
I’ve loved all your videos that involve the CRF 300 you’ve built. Can I ask what happened to your screen on the tower, it’s been missing on your last few videos….I considering buying one of these towers and your initial reviews after install were very positive. Thanks….
I've found that the wonderful views last longer the slower I go.
Please install quickshifter on the nx500😊
would you say that the tet croatia is beginner friendly?
I've done TET Monte Negro on CRF300L last summer too, also with friend on another motorbike. The scenery is breath taking. My favorite part is Kucka Krajina, the first mountains in your video. The hardest part then was to cut all the video and choose what to keep in and which scenes to cut out in sake of the viewing pace. I've ridden the MNE TET for 3 days and cut video in 5 YT episodes. But I'm not a Youtuber, so my editing is really basic and unskilled.
I really want to do TET MNE again, this time with my kids on Ural sidecar rig.
great vid, love those views!
Bro may I know which exhaust are you using on crf300
Thanks for video. I live in Montenegro and I did not know what roads you take, except Durmitor trail. Video looks great. Thank you for promoting my country. I hope you had nice stay.
