Tour overview
Just 12 km from the city center, we will seek the relaxing sounds and sights. Our guide will introduce you to the secrets of the nature that surrounds us, and together we’ll head towards the waterfall. Skakavac, at 98 meters, is the second-highest waterfall in Europe. We’ll organize the hike to approach the waterfall from the upper side, visit the famous viewpoint, and start the return journey through the forest path below the waterfall. Considering the nature of the location, we recommend wearing comfortable shoes and bringing a camera as there will be many opportunities for beautiful shots.

Tour itinerary
Departure of the group in front of the Vijećnica or another location according to the passengers’ preferences.
We have reached the starting point of our hike. We move towards the heart of untouched nature, surrounded by dense forests. Overcoming a gentle ascent, we will approach the waterfall from the upper side. Enjoy the view of the waterfall and its surroundings.
Since we have covered quite a long distance, we won’t settle for just this view. We’ll descend through the forest path, first to the viewpoint to take a few photos, and then below the waterfall itself. Now we are sure that the hike was worth it.
If you are not engaged in active hiking, you will be quite tired, so we will use wooden benches and tables along the path. From our own experience, we always prepare packed lunches. A pie, an energy bar and a refreshing drink will be the perfect snack to renew our energy for the return trip.
Nature and adventure enthusiasts will quickly overlook fatigue because they will be filled with unforgettable experiences and richer for a valuable gallery of pictures. Our transportation awaits us, and it’s time to return home.

Okupljanje grupe ispred Vijećnice ili nekog drugog mjesta prema željama putnika.
Uz miris sarajevskih somuna i bosanske kahve, proći ćemo kroz glavno šetalište ovoga grada. Tu možete kupiti neki suvenir ili popiti jutarnju kahvu. Duž šetališta ćemo vidjeti džamiju, sinagogu, katoličku, te pravoslavnu crkvu pa nam ne treba neko specijalno objašnjenje zašto ovaj grad nazivaju europskim Jerusalemom. Također ćemo doći na mjesto sa kojeg je započeo Prvi svjetski rat.
Za mnoge Sarajlije ovo mjesto predstavlja simbol rata. Tunel se prostirao ispod aerodroma i on je služio za distribuciju hrane i oružja. Ostao je sačuvan u toku ratu pa sada daje tu mogućnost da osjetite njegov značaj za opstanak.
Najpopularnija destinacija za šetnju prirodom u Sarajevu je Vrelo Bosne. Na ovom mjestu se nalaze pješačke staze okružene šumom, livadama, te malim potocima i vodopadima. Glavna atrakcija je izvor rijeke Bosne.
Vrelo Bosne ima i svoju romantičnu legendu koja govori o vječnom izvoru ljubavi. Ova priča dodatno obogaćuje iskustvo posjetitelja.
Izlet na planinu je uvijek dobra ideja, a Trebević nam nudi ugostiteljske objekte, obilježene pješačke staze u prirodi, bob stazu (simbol Zimskih Olimpijskih igara iz 1984. god), adrenalin park i velika igrališta za djecu, a sve to za samo 8 minuta vožnje žičarom od Vijećnice.
