{"id":316,"count":5,"description":"Nature Park Blidinje is one of the most beautiful natural areas in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and this beautiful gem of Herzegovina should be on your travel list. Around 360 km2 of this incredibly rich and biodiverse park lies at the heart of Dinaric Alps in the northern part of Herzegovina. Almost half of the Park is covered in forest and due to its rich biodiversity the whole area was recognized and protected as a National Park in 1995.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-8776\" src=\"https:\/\/ero-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Blidinje-Destinacija-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" \/>\r\n\r\nLocated on 1185m above sea level, this unique vast plain is really breathtaking. It is an oasis of peace and natural beauty, especially if you visit it in spring or summer time. Ideal for relaxation and walks through nature, you will definitely feel rejuvenated after you visit it. Blidinje is home of endemic species of pine munika, and the air is really fresh and healthy here. It\u2019s a great place for mountain biking, and you can enjoy horse riding through amazing nature too. In the winter time, it is a destination for skiing and enjoying in snow.\r\n\r\nIn the central part of the park, there is Dugo Polje and in the southeastern part, there is beautiful Blidinje Lake. Combination of these two provides its visitors ideal combination and creates a perfect environment for relaxation and holidays. Around two of these, there are mountain \u010cvrsnica and Vran Mountain. They are ideal for mountain climbing and nice little walks through nature. In these mountains, there is also a ski resort which during winter times provides tourists the opportunity to enjoy winter sports.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"size-large wp-image-8784 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/ero-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Blidinje-slika-10-1024x700.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"700\" \/>\r\n\r\n<strong>Mountain Massifs<\/strong>\r\n\r\nThe \u010cvrsnica mountain massif is the highest and largest in the nature park. The most notable geomorphological feature in the region is located on the mountain\u2019s eastern side above Grabovica Canyon.\r\n\r\nThis feature is a stone arch that looks a lot like a large door or circle called Hajdu\u010dka vrata (literally Haiduk Door). This is a protected natural feature in the park. Countless hikers and nature enthusiasts come to see it every year.\r\n\r\nWe divide the \u010cvrsnica massif into two sections. The first one, also called Muharnica, is located in the northeast section of the park and consists primarily of dolomite rocks. Veliki Vilinac is the highest peak in the massif with an elevation of 2,116 m (6,942 ft).\r\n\r\nThe second part of the massif, which is located opposite to Veliki Vilina on the southwestern ridge, is Velika \u010cvrsnica. The highest peak in this part of the massif is Plo\u010dno, which is mostly made of limestone.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"size-large wp-image-8782 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/ero-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Blidinje-zima-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" \/>\r\n\r\nThe highest peaks of the Blidinje Nature Park are situated in the \u010cvrsnica massif. They include:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Plo\u010dno (2,228 m\/7,309 ft)<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Mandaru\u0161a (2,204 m\/7,230 ft)<\/li>\r\n \t<li>\u0106uprija (2,194 m\/7,198 ft)<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Veliki Jelinak (2,170 m\/7,119 ft)<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Kapci (2,156 m\/7,073 ft )<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Veliki Vilinac (2,113 m\/6,932 ft)<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Ivina Kosa (2,148 m\/7,047 ft)<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<strong>What to see and do in Blidinje nature park<\/strong>\r\nBlidinje nature park is remarkable not just because of its beautiful landscape and fun activities, but also because it conserves cultural heritage that dates centuries back.\r\n\r\nSome of the most important sights in the park include the following.\r\n\r\n<strong>1. Hajdu\u010dka Vrata (Outlaw\u2019s Gate)<\/strong>\r\nOne of the most beautiful viewpoints and a great end to a hike certainly describes Hajdu\u010dka Vrata. It is a circular stone that has been considered a natural monument since 1985. According to the legend, it helped the Outlaws become bulletproof while fighting the Ottomans. Besides it being a natural wonder, its position overlooking the valleys from the eastern side of the Cvrsnica Mountain is what lures visitors here.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"size-large wp-image-6598 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/ero-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Hajducka-vrata-naslovna-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" \/>\r\n\r\n<strong>2. Blidinje Lake<\/strong>\r\nNestled between \u010cvrsnica and Vran mountains, in Polja valley, lies Blidinje lake, after which the park got its name. It is a natural lake, of glacial origin according to some, that varies from 2.5 to 6 km\u00b2 in size. Its position in between the mountains gives an amazing panorama of the surrounding mountains.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"size-large wp-image-8780 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/ero-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Blidinje-slika-8-1024x766.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"766\" \/>\r\n\r\n<strong>3. Ste\u0107ci<\/strong>\r\nSte\u0107ci or mediaeval stone sleepers that date back to the period between the 12th and 14th centuries are situated in Blidinje. Especially in Dugo Polje, which is a large necropolis that consists of 150 of these Christian tombstones situated on the road to Ked\u017eara. They vary in sizes and shapes \u2013 from slabs to crates. Also, they are often decorated with crosses, and rosettes or tell a story through symbols. Therefore, due to its cultural importance, in 2016, Dugo Polje was included on UNESCO\u2019s list of World Heritage.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"size-full wp-image-8781 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/ero-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Blidinje-Stecci.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"681\" \/>\r\n\r\n<strong>4. Cave of the Outlaw Mijat Tomi\u0107<\/strong>\r\nThe Cave of the Outlaw Mijat Tomi\u0107 is located in Dugo polje, at the foot of Vran mountain, in the immediate proximity of the restaurant Hajdu\u010dke Vrleti, and it is interesting both in terms of history and the animals living there. It has been the subject of numerous speleological analyses and research.\r\n\r\nAccording to a legend, Mijat Tomi\u0107 lived in this area in mid-17th century and he was famous for his bravery and fearlessness. It is believed that the cave has an opening leading to the other part of Vran, towards Rama.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"size-large wp-image-8779 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/ero-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Blidinje-Hajducke-vrleti-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/>\r\n\r\n<strong>5. Diva Grabov\u010deva<\/strong>\r\nAccording to a legend, Diva Grabov\u010deva was a Croatian girl that lived in the 17th century. Her uniqueness lies in the fact that, in spite of being forced, she refused to marry the Turkish Tahir-bey Kop\u010di\u0107, and she thus became a symbol of purity, martyrdom and Catholicism. A holy mass is held every year to honour Diva, always on the first Sunday following St. Peter\u2019s Day, and it is attended by several thousands of pilgrims from the whole region. The heroin Diva Grabov\u010deva is also celebrated in numerous songs, books and movies, and one of the most special ones is the opera Diva Grabov\u010deva, which is, at the same time, the first opera in Croatian language in Bosnia and Herzegovina.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"size-full wp-image-8778 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/ero-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Blidinje-Diva-Grabovceva.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" \/>\r\n\r\n<strong>6. Masna Luka<\/strong>\r\nA mountain pearl at the foot of \u010cvrsnica, with the beautiful Church of Saint Elias that perfectly blends in the natural environment, is certainly one of the most beautiful spots in Blidinje Nature Park. This part is characterised by a great wealth of pine and fir forests and disposes of several drinking water springs. The natural reserve Masna Luka, with its endemic Bosnian pine, is the perfect spot to rest your body and soul and to fully surrender to nature. Here you can visit the Franciscan gallery with valuable artwork from this area or enjoy one of the drinking water springs, the most famous one being Jasle.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"size-large wp-image-8777 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/ero-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Blidinje-Masna-luka-slika-5-1024x682.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" \/>\r\n<blockquote><em><strong>Do you want to experience Nature park Blidinje firsthand, enjoy stunning nature, picturesque views of the source Blidinje lake, and learn all about its rich history?
