Join me on this tour in the mountainous Blidinje Nature Park and discover several historically and culturally significant sites along with the beautiful landscapes.
We’ll begin by walking through a fragrant forest, followed by a visit to rural households where you can try several regional domestic products. Then we’ll pay a visit to St. Ivan’s Church, which sits in a lush green area below the mountains. We’ll pass the grave of Diva Grabovčeva, a young girl who suffered in the 1600’s during the Ottoman Empire’s rule and whose memorial symbolizes the local people’s fight for freedom.
Our last stop will be to one of Bosnia and Herzegovina’s main historic sites, decorated headstones from the 12th to 14th century known as the Necropolis of Storks.
To finish off this fascinating and enriching tour, you’ll be invited to taste a dish that the people of this area have been preparing for centuries.

Hiking Guide
Welcome to your Herzegovina Hiking Adventure. My name is Miroslav Mihalj, born in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina. I am the current president of the Croatian Mountaineering Association “Prenj 1933 Mostar”, certified Mountain Guide and Rescuer and I offer hiking, snowshoeing and ski touring tours around this beautiful region.
As mountain hiker I am proud to have climbed some of the highest peaks in Europe and Balkans as well as local peaks in Bosnia and Herzegovina, which I have climbed numerous times both in winter and summer.
I enjoy nature, that feeling of freedom and serenity the mountains offer. They are a place to find yourself and push your boundaries. I’m lucky to have been born in a place surrounded by beautiful and intact mountain ranges hiding the most exciting nature my country has to offer.
Very much excited to meet you and share with you this truly wonderful world!

We really enjoyed our trip with our guide Mijo. He was extremely good in communicating at WhatsApp and very flexible. We ended our trip in a beautiful river with amazing surrounding view. I can highly recommend to do some hiking in the mountains around Mostar, really worth it.

Due to lack of snow the trip became a hike instead of a snowshoeing trip. Nevertheless it was an awesome experience in pristine mountain area. Miroslav was great. We didn’t meet another sole the full 22km and the lunch stop at the mountain hut was excellent.

Miroslav was a fantastic guide. We wanted to see Outlaw’s Gate up Čvrsnica but didn’t know where to begin, including how to get to the trailhead. Miroslav picked us up from Mostar and took us up to the top. Friendly, knowledgable and funny, we always felt at ease with his expertise on the route. Miroslav is the best guide in Herzegovina - cheers!
