Montokuc is the most prominent peak on the westernmost branch of the most forested Adriatic island of Mljet. It has always served as an optimal vantage point for observing almost the entire territory of the National Park. From the top of Montokuc local firefighters on duty have been keeping watch for decades in order to alert residents and act immediately at the first sign of a fire. The former lookout cabin that they built themselves in the eighties has now been replaced by a prefabricated pavilion which, besides its primary function of protecting firefighters, also provides an additional attraction and a scenic viewpoint for visitors of Mljet.
