Program

The Hike

Our tour includes easy mountain walk through beautiful, fragrant natural forest and a visit to rural households with domestic products tasting. Along the way we visit St Ivan's church built in exquisite green surroundings below the mountains. We also pass by the grave of a young girl that suffered in 17th century during Ottoman Empire called Diva Grabovčeva which represents a symbol of resistance and fight for freedom of the people living in this area. Last but not the least, as unavoidable part of our tour is a visit to necropolis of storks, decorated headstones that date from 12th to 14th century and are one of the main historic monuments in Bosnia and Herzegovina. By the end of our tour we invite you to taste a national dish traditionally eaten by peasants in this mountain area for centuries. Finally, late in the afternoon, together we return back to Mostar.
