Vrelo Bosne
The source of the Bosna River at the foot of Mount Igman, with clear springs, small wooden bridges, swans and tree-lined avenues. A top choice for a day out of the city.
Vrelo Bosne Park lies in the Ilidža district. Dozens of clear springs burst from the foot of Mount Igman and form streams, ponds and small islands, all linked by wooden bridges, with ducks and swans gliding across the water. The approach from Ilidža to the park is an Austro-Hungarian-era tree-lined avenue about 3 km long (Velika Aleja), which can be walked, cycled or traveled by horse-drawn carriage. Tickets cost about 2 BAM, and the park has restaurants where you can eat trout. To get there, take tram line 3 to its terminus at Ilidža, then walk or take a horse-drawn carriage.
