After enjoying this enchanting landscape, the trail leads through the rural areas of Herzegovina, where you’ll experience the authentic way of life and traditions of the local people.

The ride continues towards the center of Ljubuški, where a visit to the Franciscan Monastery and Museum on Humac is a must. This is the oldest museum in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The trail then leads to Bagin Bridge, where you transition from an asphalt road to a gravel path known as Bajer, a favorite destination for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts.

RECOMMENDATION

Although the trail mostly takes us through populated areas and you drive on an asphalted section, on some sections you drive on a macadam part of the trail, but the road is very well paved and does not pose a problem for driving. We always believe that on longer rides it is necessary to bring a mini tool and a tool for patching inner tires, so the rule also applies to this section. We definitely recommend that you inform your family or friends about your cycling plans before going for a ride.
Helmet mandatory!

The project "Cycling routes for the improvement of the natural and cultural heritage of Herzegovina and Montenegro" is carried out within the framework of the Cross-Border Cooperation Program Bosnia and Herzegovina - Montenegro, which is financed by the European Union. The project officially started on October 1, 2019, and its implementation will last 18 months. The total value of the project is EUR 495,000.00, of which the European Union finances EUR 400,000.00. The partners in the project are the West Herzegovina County Government Office for European Integration as the project holder, the City of Široki Brijeg, the City of Ljubuški, the Municipality of Posušje, the Municipality of Grude and the Tourist Organization of Herceg Novi. The European Union finances this project with the aim of strengthening and diversifying the quality of the tourist offer, as well as the development of outdoor cycling and tourist offers in the rural areas of the cross-border regions of Montenegro and Bosnia and Herzegovina. The project will result in the creation of a new and attractive offer under the "Cycling Rrural" brand, which will become part of the overall tourist offer of both countries, as well as the tourist offer of the Adriatic hinterland.
