Description
Widely considered to be one of the most beautiful mountains in all of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Prenj Mountain is the perfect spot for a 2+ day ski touring adventure!
Nestled into the Dinaric Alps, in northern Herzegovina, we will ski into the heart of the mountain range, climbing up to some of its highest peaks and enjoying incredible descents.
The adventure begins after we pick you up from your accommodation in Mostar and drive out to the trailhead in Rustie (1,000 m). Once here, we will gear up and begin skiing into a high forest, until we emerge above the tree line.
After arriving at the Mountain Hut (1,450 m), we will drop off our gear and spend the rest of the afternoon skiing through the unspoiled powder in the heart of beautiful Prenj Moutnain.
On the second day, we will wake up in the morning and ski to the base of the highest summit on Prenj. From here, we ascend up 800 metres until we reach the top.
After taking in the panoramic and gorgeous vistas out over the mountains and valleys, we will ski back to the Mountain Hut and return to Rustie.
If you'd like to spend a little more time exploring the Moutnain, we will also have the opportunity to keep skiing after we summit Prenj and continue the trip to another mountain hut.
Once we get back, we'll enjoy a hot and traditional dinner at a national restaurant before driving back to Mostar.

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!

Sara
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.
Peter
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.
Lewis
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!
Alessandra
My brother and I had a great day hiking with Miroslav, it was a beautiful route and matched my expectations in terms of difficulty. Miroslav patiently answered all my brother’s questions on the history of Bosnia and Herzegovina!
Isabell
I enjoyed my time with Miroslav a lot! He is a great person and an even greater tour guide! He is very knowledgeable about the whole mountain area around Mostar (and more) and very professional. He made me feel comfortable the whole time and adapted the tour spontaneously to my needs and wishes, which I appreciated a lot! So at the end we even did a beautiful via ferrata which was not the original plan and I loved it so much! He also brings local food a is so knowledgeable about history and other interesting things about Bosnia and Herzegowina. We had good conversations and a great time together! Thank you Miroslav!!:)
