Vrelo Bosne

Vrelo Bosne

Sarajevo’s most urban protected area is the Vrelo Bosne park, which is the source of the River Bosna that traverses far north into the Sava and Danube Rivers that eventually spill into the Black Sea. The park, located in the suburb of Ilidza, is accessible by tram, car, bike, bus, foot or fijaker – one of the few places in Europe where horse and carriage are the preferred mode of transport. The Romans discovered this place thousands of years ago and has been a popular spot ever since. The spacious green area is perfect for long walks, picnics, chilling on the grass with a good book, or having fresh trout for lunch from the local fish farm. The crystal clear water is an accumulation from the vast karst fields of Bjelasnica and Igman Mountains above where it is all channeled into this amazing spring. Vrelo Bosne is a favorite spot for families with children as well as couples looking for a quiet, romantic stroll along the shade covered alley leading to the springs.
