Jovana Kvržić is one of Serbia’s best trav- el bloggers, whose content on the Insta- gram social network is followed by over 21,000 people. Since she picked up her suitcase in 2015, she has travelled to over 60 countries worldwide. When she isn’t broadening her horizons, she’s pre- paring to embark on her endeavour to earn the title of doctor of pharmaceuti- cal sciences. For this issue of Elevate she takes us to Mount Tara with her camera, to the Jan- jač peak on the border between Serbia and Bosnia’s Republika Srpska, at an alti- tude of around 1,500 m/asl. En route she passed through the village of Karaklije, of- fering a typical rural Serbian landscape. A hiking trail leads to the peak itself, which is steep but traversable. On the peak you can see Lake Zaovine on one side and Višegrad, with its famous “Bridge on the Drina”, on the other. “It is best to visit Janjač during summer, because the trail to the top is snowed un- der during winter. When climbing to the top you will enjoy the silence of nature, which can only be interrupted by the baa- ing of sheep. If you are lucky, a shepherd will be with them and will be in the mood to talk. This seemingly ordinary man is a treasure trove of knowledge about na- ture, but also anecdotes that will brighten your day,” says Jovana.
