Day 1: Biking from Mostar to the Warm Emerald Waters of Boracko Glacier Lake.

Early morning on your first day, your route takes you out along the aqua-green Neretva River. Leaving Mostar behind, you warm up your legs and cycle to the village of Potoci surrounded by endless vineyards with rows of authentic Blatina and Zilavka grapes only found here in the dry karst regions of Herzegovina. From these lowlands, you start your spectacular ride across the Prenj mountain range. This is a challenging ride with switchbacks and climbing on a mix of decent gravel and asphalt roads. You pass by Ruiste, a small mountain village with a lonely ski resort located on the edge of Prenj.

59.9 kilometers ❘ ascent: 1,300 meters ❘ descent: 940 meters ❘ 60% asphalt ❘ 40% gravel
Dinner / Villa Sunce, Boracko lake

OPTIONAL: Stay an extra day at Boracko lake and discover firsthand the thrills of white water rafting on the Neretva river.

Day 2: Caravan route over three distinct mountain ranges in the Dinaric Alps.

Today you’ll cycle from Boracko Lake to the mountain village of Umoljani along the “Caravan” trading route once used during the Ottoman era. The gentle asphalt road will soon give way to a more challenging and steep dirt-and-gravel road on a stretch between the Prenj and Bjelasnica Massifs through the heart of the Visocica Range.

52.8 kilometers ❘ ascent: 1,630 meters ❘ descent: 680 meters ❘ 90% asphalt ❘ 10% gravel
Breakfast, Packed Lunch, Dinner / Pension Umoljani, Umoljani

Day 3: Olympic Experience and the War Road into Sarajevo

On your final morning, you’ll stare into the distance and study the day’s path from Bjelašnica to Igman Mountain, the site of the men’s downhill and ski jump during the 1984 Olympic Winter Games.

61 kilometers ❘ ascent: 530 meters ❘ descent: 1,300 meters ❘ 25% asphalt ❘ 75% gravel

OPTIONAL: Not so keen on descending on a good gravel road? Then we suggest you ride into Sarajevo using an alternative equally scenic and reasonably quiet asphalt road.
