TRIP HIGHLIGHTS

  • Snowshoeing through remote and spectacular winter mountain scenery
  • Hike on the Via Dinarica route in winter conditions
  • Summit Crveni Kuk peak (1,733m)

Winding through Bjelašnica’s back roads we’ll reach the Rakitnica River and cross over towards Visočica Mountain. Tucked in the hills just above the ridged walls of this mountain sits Sinanovići Village (1,250m). The walk up will take us through beech forest and then open rocky terrain up to the summit of Crveni Kuk Peak (1,733m). You will be rewarded with far reaching views of the highest mountains in Bosnia & Herzegovina, as well as those in neighboring Montenegro. Mountains of Romanija, Jahorina, Treskavica, Bjelašnica, and Sutjeska National Park…all gracefully covered in white dresses, stand there just to pose to our cameras…

Should the weather turn nasty we can always find refuge in one of the mountain huts and enjoy a warm tea or coffee. A nice circular hike then brings us back to the place we started from. In short, our Sarajevo snowshoeing trip is an ideal activity for those who want to escape the city for a couple of hours.
