Discover more about Trebevic Peak

Trebevic Peak, standing at 1,629 meters, is a mountain located just southeast of Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, representing a unique blend of urban and natural harmony. Once declared a national park due to its diverse vegetation, it's a favorite destination for locals and tourists alike. Trebevic's history is rich and complex. During the Middle Ages, it was known as Zlatni Do. In 1984, it played a significant role in the Winter Olympics, hosting bobsled and luge competitions. However, during the Bosnian War in the 1990s, Trebevic became a frontline, resulting in the destruction of many of its facilities, including the cable car. Today, Trebevic has been revitalized as a recreational and tourist destination. The cable car, rebuilt and reopened in 2018, offers a scenic 9-minute ride from Sarajevo's old town to the mountain. At the summit, visitors can explore hiking trails, the abandoned Olympic bobsled track (now adorned with graffiti art), and enjoy panoramic views of Sarajevo and the surrounding Dinaric Alps. The mountain also features restaurants and hotels, providing opportunities for relaxation and refreshment. Whether you're interested in hiking, history, or simply enjoying the natural beauty of the region, Trebevic Peak offers an unforgettable experience.
