My name is Miroslav. I am certified Mountain Guide and certified Mountain Rescuer and I will be your guide to Bosnia and Herzegovina's mountains. For all nature lovers and the ones who want to become one, I welcome you to our beautiful country. As an active hiker for many years and President of local hiking community in Mostar, my vision is to share the spirit of outdoor adventure and hiking experience with all open to embrace the nature. In my vast experience as a hiker I am proud to have conquered some of the highest peaks in Alps and Balkan region such as Grossglockner- Austria, Grand Paradiso – Italia, Mont Blanc – France, Monte Rosa – Switzerland, Mount Ararat – Turkey High Tatras – Slovakia and Poland, Triglav – Slovenia, Olimp – Greece, Rila – Bulgaria, Prokletije – Albania, Durmitor – Montenegro and Maglić – Bosnia and Herzegovina. As a people oriented person I as well had an urge to help others, participating in many rescues of missing persons in rough mountain terrain within my carrier of a Certified Mountain Rescuer and member of Mountain Rescue Unit Mostar. Leveraging on my extensive mountain experience and skills gained as Certified Mountain Rescuer and Guide, as well as cycling, rafting and skiing experiences I’m confident to provide you advice, guidance and your personally-shaped outdoor adventures that will leave you with most memorable moments to look upon. WELCOME! I’m excited to meet you and share with you our beautiful and intact nature of Bosnia And Herzegovina Mountains.

Tour provider's comments

Activity: 6-7 days hike (4-12h & 500 - 1500 meters daily ascents)

This tour includes hiking through the 3 most beautiful and exciting mountains ranges in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The first mountain Maglić, 2396 masl high, is the highest mountain in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It is located in the eastern part of the country on the border with Montenegro. This area is one of the rare still wild and sparsely populated, and it hides one of the last rainforests in Europe, Perućica.

The second mountain is Prenj, 2155masl high and, according to the opinion of most, the most beautiful mountain in Bosnia and Herzegovina. With its ridges and steep rocky peaks to the large extent it resembles to the Alps. It represents a rare corner of untouched wilderness and pure mountain nature surrounded by 11 peaks higher than 2000masl.

The third mountain is ÄŚvrsnica which is 2228masl high and the highest mountain in Herzegovina. On this mountain you will visit the famous nature monument HajduÄŤka Vrata 2000 masl from where you can capture a special view of the valley of Diva Grabovica, the river Neretva and the magnificent mountain Prenj.
