This trip starts in downtown Sarajevo with a short transfer toward Bukovik, on the slopes of mountain Ozren, just north of the city. After arriving at the starting point, we will prepare the equipment and have a short safety briefing before starting the hike to the ferrata.
The route leads through peaceful forest and mountain paths before reaching Bukovik Via Ferrata. From there, we climb secured rocky sections using steel cables, footholds, and natural rock passages. The ferrata is safe and guided, but still gives a real feeling of adventure.
At the top of Bukovik, 1534 m above sea level, we will enjoy beautiful panoramic views of Sarajevo and the Olympic mountains: Bjelašnica, Igman, Trebević, and Jahorina.
