Escape the city and head up into the Dinaric Alps: Lukomir is the highest and most isolated village in Bosnia and Herzegovina, nestled right in the Olympic Mountains and overlooking the Rakitnica Canyon, the second deepest canyon in Europe.
After a scenic drive from Sarajevo, you will first reach Umoljani, a mountain village famous for its stone houses and legends about dragons. From there, you'll continue on foot: an easy to moderate hike will take you along a scenic trail running along Europe's second-deepest canyon, the Rakitnica Canyon.
Along the way, your guide will share stories about what it's like to live in one of the most inaccessible and remote areas of Bosnia. And, of course, there will always be plenty of time for breaks during the hike to soak up the views and take photos!
In Lukomir, a traditional Bosnian lunch awaits you, prepared by locals using locally sourced seasonal ingredients. And nowhere does food taste as good as at 4,921 feet (1,500 meters) above sea level after a strenuous hike ;-)
On our hike, we take our time. Small groups of no more than 8 hikers ensure a relaxed pace that allows you to fully take in your surroundings. If you want to combine nature, history and a hike that feels like spending time with a good friend, then this is the tour for you.
