TET
Bosnia and Herzegovina is a mountainous country offering a vast variety of terrain to ride. Mountain peaks will offer amazing views. There are also the open plains that you will experience entering Bosnia from Croatia at Bosansko Grahovo. The TET will take you towards Livno riding along Buško Lake and then towards Ramsko Lake. Visiting these beautiful glacial lakes spread through the Bosnian mountains will create amazing riding opportunites. Riding towards Mostar and then Montenegro where you will be greeted by the famous Durmitor mountain range and Žabljak area where the HUBB has its annual event.
WARNING: Wherever you see the "MINE" sign on the side of the road, it is STRICTLY forbidden (not to say very, very foolish) to venture from the road.
Bosnia and Herzegovina was unfortunately part of the wars of the 90’s. MINE signs along the white roads, in the woods, open fields, wood clearings etc NEED to be taken very seriously.
There have been reports of people riding in fields where there are known to be mines and we, as a part of the TET project, advise strongly against such risky and stupid behaviour.
Any unnecessary riding in danger areas puts the individual, his/her friends and the emergency services in mortal danger. It also puts in jeopardy the TET routes, possibly leading to their temporary closure and even permanently finishing defined trail use in these areas.
We have provided a link to the map of MINE infected areas that is updated whenever part of the infected area is declared clear of mines.
Local people may know a safe path, but because the mines move with the soil you cannot trust or rely on their verbal advice.
Please follow the rules and the designated TET route, so we can all safely enjoy the amazing vistas of the Bosnia and Herzegovina.
