Are you planning a winter holiday?

Then stop by the Vlašić mountain, located in the heart of Bosnia & Herzegovina, only a 3.5 hour drive from the capital, Sarajevo.

Lift passes, accommodation, restaurants etc. are much cheaper than in the Alps and what is even greater: it is not crowded as it is not well known (at least for now).  The highest peak at Vlašić is Paljenik, with an elevation of 1,943 meters above sea level.

Vlašić Mountain represents the core of winter tourism in the area. In fact, it was well known for its annual International ski-jump competition, the Vlasic Cup Contest, which was integrated in the Cup of Europe.

You are guaranteed snow at the Valsic and the Babanovac areas as the snow lasts for approximately 5 months a year!
