Northwest of Mostar rises the majestic mountain massif Čabulja, a rugged, rocky landscape that, together with the renowned peaks of Čvrsnica, Vran, and Prenj, forms what many experts consider one of the most breathtaking mountain ranges in Europe. This awe-inspiring region is on the path to becoming a designated national park—a testament to its exceptional natural beauty and ecological value. If you are a passionate gravel biking enthusiast, get ready for an unforgettable two-day Gravel adventure that will immerse you in the heart of Herzegovina’s wild landscapes.
Day 1: Goranci Plateau to Blidinje Nature Park
Your gravel biking journey begins in Goranci, a serene plateau at approximately 700 meters above sea level. This idyllic escape just outside Mostar is a beloved summer retreat known for its refreshing air and peaceful charm. Here, the adventure kicks off from the welcoming Konoba Goranci restaurant, where you will feel the thrill of embarking on a trail that winds through the picturesque Goranci plateau.
Pedal through enchanting terrain filled with stunning vistas as you make your way to Bogodol, a hidden gem nestled within the wilderness of Čabulja. The path leads you deeper into nature, past rolling landscapes, rocky expanses, and herds of semi-wild horses that roam freely—a unique and captivating sight that defines this remote region.
Your ride continues towards the renowned Park prirode Blidinje, home to the serene Blidinje Lake, where unspoiled beauty and tranquility reign. After a day of exhilarating biking, you will arrive at the charming Hajdučke Vrleti restaurant and lodge, where authentic Herzegovinian cuisine and cozy accommodations await. Enjoy a hearty dinner, rest, and rejuvenate for the adventures that lie ahead.
Day 2: Exploring the Hidden Gems of Vran Mountain
The second day of your gravel biking escapade takes you deeper into the mystical allure of Blidinje. Starting from Hajdučke Vrleti, you will ride through landscapes steeped in history and legend. Marvel at the medieval tombstones (stećci) scattered across the fields—ancient remnants that whisper stories of a distant past. Visit the monument dedicated to Diva Grabovčeva, a symbol of love, defiance, and tragic destiny woven into the fabric of local folklore.
As the trail beckons, explore Blidinje Lake’s serene waters and the intriguing Hajduk Mijat Tomić cave, a hideout of one of Herzegovina’s most famous historical outlaws.
