Rožaje is a border mountain town in northeastern Montenegro, located in a mountainous area close to the border between Serbia and Kosovo. As the administrative center of the municipality of Rožaje, the city is about 1,100 meters above sea level and has a population of about 10,000, making it one of the areas with the highest percentage of Muslim population in Montenegro.
Surrounded by rolling hills and crossed by the Ibar River, Rožaj enjoys a temperate continental climate with cold, snowy winters and cool summers. Its geographical location makes it an important link between Montenegro and the Balkan interior, with direct road access to Novi Pazar in Serbia.
The city is known for its architectural heritage from the Ottoman period, with several historical mosques and traditional Balkan-style homes. The predominantly Bosnian population retains a distinctive Islamic cultural heritage, and celebrations such as Eid al-Fitr attract many tourists each year.
Rozaj's economy is based on forestry, small processing industries and cross-border trade. The surrounding mountains are suitable for hiking and skiing, and the famous Hajla Nature Reserve (Hajla), with its pristine forests and alpine meadows, is a popular destination for eco-tourism.
