Sutjeska This unique national park is both the largest and the oldest in BiH and as a large number of our activities take place at this location, we will write out a few sentences to inform you. National Park Sutjeska is home to one of the last primeval forests in Europe under UNESCO protection with trees over 60m in height. In the middle of the primeval forest lies the Skakavac waterfall 75m high which contributes to the magic of this place. Rijeka Sutjeska carved the beautiful valley of Tjentište in the center of the park and separates the mountain Zelengora from the mountains Maglić and Volujak. The highest peak of BiH Maglić (2386m) is located on the border with Montenegro and is very attractive and challenging for mountaineers as well as for all nature lovers. In addition to the famous Trnovac Lake, which is located in Montenegro, and the only access pedestrian path is through the National Park Sutjeska, also in the park park we have a large number of not less beautiful glacial lakes.
