Sutjeska National Park

Travelling through Sutjeska is one of the most beautiful experiences in my life. Amazing scenery, the people are lovely, the sky is pure and the forest looks pristine, yet guardian of secrets dating back to the realms of humankind.
You can easily imagine Alexander the Great and his army walking over this mountains.

Marvelous nature, breathtaking beauty, mountains, lakes and forests. Good for hiking, camping or just relax and enjoy refreshing air. Restaurants, camps and hotels located in Tjentiste valley offer all a full tourist hospitality. There is no better place to visit and enjoy nature beauty and rest from everyday rush.

Amazing place, full of painful history of II. world war. Most amazing nature with scenery to die for.

I only saw part of it riding from Foca to Sarajevo. But very beautiful

Amazingly unspoilt and beautiful, very few visitors to this largely untouched paradise spamming into Montenegro. What a relief after the packed Croatian and Montenegro coast. Has one of Europe's last untouched rainforests. I recommend to stay in Tjenteste at zelengora apartment there. Locals very friendly but take cash no credit cards accepted here or cash machine for 50km. It's remote !

Amazing national park and also place of famous battle in second world war. I am sorry that they are not investing more as roads are not maintained and there should be more rangers. But this is place you have to see and I will be coming back for sure. We have climbed Bregoc and Ugljesin peaks which I do recommend but as they are far and if you are not several days here you will need to organize transport either with old mini buses provided by national park or your own 4WD vehicles.

Really beautiful place with amazing nature and diversity. We went walking all the way to Stabna lake in Montengro and back.

Had an amazing day exploring the national park with Dejan our guide. We went to a lake in the picturesque mountains with Dejan educating us about Bosnia and the park along the way. He was very informative and friendly. He spoke English excellently. Thank you for an unforgettable experience.

Sutjeska National Park with Perucica Primaeval forest and Skakavac waterfall. Giant spruce trees, as tall as 30m grow all around. Spectacular scenery

Great view, feeling powerful when you stand in front of it.

Best natural wonder in former Yougoslavia

Don't think just go there.

Beautiful untouched nature especially within Perućica primeval forest. A touch of Yugoslavian history dating from Second World War and a restored resort dating from socialist days add up to a very special feeling of the place.

It's not bad but it's still Bosnia. Can't even touch the ocean huh. 5 stars for land. 1 star for takin it from those Croatian.

We just visited Sutjeska National Park and thought we'd put up a bit of a report because we also found it very hard to find information. We started off in Tjentiste where you can visit the info centre near Hotel Mladost and see information about the different hikes. You can buy a map or you can just take a photo of the display map and follow the signs once you are in the park. The entrance to the park is from the centre of town and is signed. It cost us 5 marks each and 5 marks for the car to enter.

Many of the more popular hikes start from the Prijevor lookout which is a 20km drive - it's a rough drive that takes about 1-1.5 hours but it is definitely possible in a normal car. The lookout is beautiful and we slept in our camper in the carpark. There are also several small huts for rent that looked really nice. We decided to hike to Trnovacko jezero and it was a well marked and not too difficult (about 1.5-2hrs).

The only issue we had was once we made it down to the lake. We saw signs stating that park fees applied and felt comfortable knowing that we had already paid our entrance. After a quick swim, we started to walk back towards the path to return to our car when a man came out of the small cafe and angrily beckoned us over to him. He shouted at us to show him our passports and pay him money. It turns out that the lake is actually inMontenegro and whether or not he is officially supposed to charge people to hike there, he is. We apologised and explained that we did not realise that we needed to pay or provide our passports and had left them in our car, at which point he became irate and began threatening us with a switchblade knife and trying to take our car keys and bag. We managed to get away from him and ran back up the path.

We have reported this to the National Park and providing that you take your passports and a few euro (1 euro pp according to other people that we spoke to later) you shouldn't have the same problems that we did. We would definitely recommend the National Park - it's beautiful and quiet.

Beautiful place for a hike, very peaceful and amazing views.

One of the most beautiful monuments in BiH, placed in heart of nature.

Super ...

Amazing

Absolutely amazing
