The hike starts from Prijevor viewpoint, with a stunning view of Maglić, the highest peak in Bosnia and Herzegovina. From there, we continue down the trail to Trnovačko Lake, a beautiful heart-shaped lake surrounded by towering mountains. The route offers incredible nature and perfect spots for photos and a short break by the water.
We’ll spend about an hour at Trnovačko Lake, where we’ll have a picnic lunch by the water. For those feeling brave, there’s a chance to take a refreshing swim in the cold, clear mountain lake.
After the hike, we’ll visit the Tjentište Memorial (Spomenik), a powerful monument dedicated to the fallen Partisan fighters of the Battle of Sutjeska in 1943. The monument, shaped like two massive concrete wings, stands in a peaceful valley surrounded by mountains. It’s a striking example of Yugoslav-era architecture and a place to reflect on the region’s history and courage of those who fought there.

About Sarajevo
Sarajevo, capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina, lies in a mountain-ringed valley where Ottoman bazaars meet Austro-Hungarian boulevards.
Sarajevo follows the Miljacka River through a long valley with steep green hills on either side. Baščaršija, the old Ottoman bazaar, has copper workshops, tea houses and the Sebilj, a wooden fountain, and the Gazi Husrev-beg Mosque dates from the 1530s. West of it, the streets turn to Austro-Hungarian façades and cafés, so that a mosque, a Catholic cathedral, an Orthodox church and a synagogue all stand within a short walk.
Top-ranked sights in Sarajevo: Sarajevo Tunnel (Tunel Spasa), Sarajevo Olympic Bobsleigh and Luge Track, Latin Bridge (Latinska Ćuprija).
