THE BOSNA RIVER SPRING
![]()
Tour to Sarajevo simply must include the Bosna River Spring. Every visitor is drawn to the magic of a spring with crystal clear cold water rising under the Igman Mountain. The Bosna River Spring area is an exquisite natural heritage with hot springs floating into the river. This spring rising at the foot of Igman, was arranged as a park during the Austro-Hungarian period. The concept has been kept.
Effluents and banks are connected with bridges which extend into narrow paths. Water-gates and damns formed small lakes for fish and swans.
Weekends and holidays bring many visitors who prepare barbecues, while children play and some even take a bath. Visitors enjoy taking long walks around numerous lakes, islands and walking paths.
They are also drawn to beautiful and tamed swans that are fed bread by visitors.
This is a gathering place where many families can spend time in a natural setting of the Bosna River Spring during the summer season.
Many visitors also take a coach - ride along the plane and horse chestnut tree alley which links the Spa of the Hotel Ilidža and the Bosna River Spring for 3 KM.
