Itinerary

First stop: Konjic

 

A little town with a population of just under 26,000 and a history dating back 4,000 years, Konjic is where Bosnia and Herzegovina meet. Home to one of the most beautiful bridges in the country! A 6-arc stone bridge built in early Ottoman style, is regrettably still overshadowed by Mostar's bridge. The town's current claim to fame is as the site of some of the country's most thrilling whitewater rafting but also the home of best kept secret in Yugoslavia - Tito's Bunker . Soak up the stunning scenery of Prenj mountain and emerald green Neretva river while learning about the area's rich history from our knowledgeable guide.

Second stop: Kravica Waterfall

 

Kravica Waterfall is the largest and most impressive waterfall in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It forms a stunning 120-meter-wide amphitheater as the Trebižat River cascades down 28 meters. The waterfall is captivating year-round, but summer brings a special charm. It's a unique opportunity to take a refreshing dip, just as locals have done for centuries to escape the intense Herzegovina sun.

Third stop: Počitelj

 

Počitelj is a time capsule from the 14th century that seems to have never changed. Perched on a hill above the Neretva River, this picturesque village is an enchanting place straight out of a storybook. Stunning stone homes, a magnificent clock tower, mosque, and fortification all contribute to the city's one-of-a-kind design. The silo-shaped forth is the most noticeable feature, and it provides a breathtaking vista. Often neglected, but unquestionably worth the trip - in this case short hike!

Mostar

Mostar's story begins in the 15th century when it was founded by the Ottomans. The city quickly developed into a thriving trading center where traders from different cultures gathered. The architecture, food, and manner of life in Mostar still reflect this rich fusion of influences. The Stari Most, the crowning achievement of Ottoman architect Mimar Hayruddin, was built in 1566 and is the pride of Mostar. Its graceful, single-arch design was an engineering wonder and a crucial connection between the two sections of the city. The bridge represented more than simply a physical connection but also a symbol of the harmonious coexistence of different nationalities. Mostar was severely damaged during the turbulent years of the Bosnian War in the 1990s, with the Stari Most being completely destroyed. In 2004 bridge rose like a Fenix from ashes. Protected by UNESCO, Old Town of Mostar is definitely a highlight of the journey!

Genel olarak çok iyiydi ancak araçta bir miktar sıkışık oturmak zorunda kaldık. Daha uygun bir araç tercih edilebilirdi. Bunun haricinde rehber, rota, paylaşılan bilgiler her şeyden gayet memnun kaldık.
