Make sure your bag is packed to go into our trail support vehicle. We will depart in the morning after breakfast on a trail heading northwest. Well rested horses and flat sections invite a light trot or canter. We will continue downhill towards the Lepenica river where you can ride through the shallow water and enjoy its waterfalls. For the next 15 kilometers, we will mainly walk and trot on forest paths with a few everglades. Enjoy the view and calming rush of the mountain river Crna Rijeka (Black River). For lunch we will have fresh grilled trout. The sound of the Crna Rijeka welcomes a quick nap in hammocks in the shade.

After a good breakfast we will prepare the horses for the next part of the route. The elevation will now continue to rise and our first stop will be a high plane which is located at an altitude of 1,744 meters above sea level. The incline is gentle through forest paths and open glades. We will cross the tree limit at 1,600 meters and have the spectacle called Bitovnja opening up in front of us. The vast mountain pastures invite a canter and gallop. The scenery is breathtaking and often looks as if one could see from one end of Bosnia to the other. After 10 kilometers of hard riding, our trail support car will await us and welcome us to a well-deserved picnic. A hot traditional Bosnian dish of bean soup and sausages will be served on the spectacular high plains. Afterwards, we will continue through the vast pastures. One can certainly say that this is the most beautiful section of our adventure. We will then descend down to our next overnight destination.

We will have a demanding riding section of about 25 kilometers in front of us. We will start climbing towards the mountain Zec, which will take us about three hours to complete. We will pass through mountain pastures where shepherds graze thousands of sheep during the summer. Further down in the valley you will see their huts and sheep shelters. All around us, we will have the Zec mountain slopes with natural plantations of cranberries and blueberries. We’ll stop at a spectacular viewpoint to enjoy a saddle-bag picnic for lunch and let the horses graze. After a rest, we will continue on to Prokoško Lake. Many have written about the beauty of this fairy tale lake, calling it the eye of the mountain or natural gem. It is located in the heart of the mountain range Vranica, which, according to many, is the most beautiful tourist destination in Bosnia and Herzegovina. There are shepherds’ huts around the lake, built entirely of wooden logs.

The section is approximately 3 – 4 hours long and it links Prokoško Lake with the small picturesque Bosnian town Fojnica. Before loading our horses in the trailers, we’ll have a final saddle-bag picnic watching the horses graze. After lunch, horses and riders will both be transferred back to Lazy Horse by car. There we’ll change and take the short drive to a beautiful local spa for swimming, sauna, steam rooms and a massage.
