Winter Idyll on Jahorina
Jahorina is an Olympic mountain and one of the most modern mountain centres. It is locat- ed at the heart of the Balkans, near the Bos- nia-Herzegovina capital of Sarajevo. Its great advantage is the close proximity of this major city and an international airport, which are lo - cated just a 30-minute drive from this moun - tain centre.
This mountain’s highest peak, Ogor- jelica (1,916 metres above sea lev - el), is located in a spot that’s in- fluenced by Mediterranean and continental climates, which creates conditions ensuring many snowy days. Jahorina can boast of its first- class alpine and Nordic trails for day or night skiing. These trails are suitable for both novice skiers and lovers of more extreme skiing. Also standing out is the panoramic gon- dola or six-seat chair lift, while this mountain is arranged to meet the standards of world ski resorts. Apart from trails for winter sports, Jahorina also has outstanding hik- ing and cycling trails, as well as panoramic cable car and gondola rides, paragliding, paintball, sports courts, swimming pools and well- ness & spa centres, quad driving
and one of the longest mountain bobsleigh runs in Europe (Alpine coaster). Skiers will cer - tainly enjoy Jahorina more than ever this year, thanks to its perfectly prepared trails. This year’s guests are awaited by a new trail that’s around 1,000 metres long. Apart from the Pol - jica trail that’s already completely illuminat - ed, visitors will have at their disposal anoth - er illuminated trail for night skiing, but also an expanded Olympic Bar, which is the most popular hospitality facility at the top of the mountain. Jahorina pays the greatest atten - tion to children and novice skiers, and obsta - cle courses have been prepared for them on the Poljica trail and in the Heavenly Valley [Ra - jska dolina], while the instructors of the Ja - horina Olympic Centre’s ski school can show everyone, in an interesting way, how easy it is to become a skier or improve one’s skiing skills.
Sa vrha puca pogled na Bjelašnicu, Romaniju, Kleku i Treskavicu, a kako meštani tvrde, kada je vedro i lepo vreme, vide se i udaljeni obrisi Zlatibora i Zlatara / The view from the top extends to Bjelašnica, Romanija, Klek and Treskavica, while locals claim that the distant outlines of Zlatibor and Zlatar mountains can be seen when the weather is clear and fine
