Location
Blidinje is right
outside your door.
The Woodlander house sits in Blidinje Nature Park, close enough to everything people come here for, and still in its own quiet spot.
The Risovac ski resort is only about 500 metres away, while mountain trails, the lake, restaurants and places worth discovering are all in the immediate surroundings.
Blidinje Nature Park
A plateau between
two mountains.
The Woodlander house stands inside Blidinje Nature Park itself, between the mountains of Čvrsnica and Vran. Here we have picked out the places worth seeing, the things worth experiencing and a few of our recommendations for the time you spend outside the house.
Between Čvrsnica and Vran lies Blidinje, a high mountain plateau where, in a relatively small area, a lake, mountain peaks, forests, open meadows and centuries of history all come together.
At its centre is Blidinje Lake, and traces of life in this area reach far back. Roman roads, medieval stećci and old mountain paths exist today alongside some of the most recognisable natural sites in Herzegovina.
What to see
Six reasons
to leave the house.
All of it is inside Blidinje Nature Park. Some places call for hiking boots; others you can reach almost in passing.
What to do
Winter and summer.
In Blidinje the season changes the plan, but it rarely leaves a day without an idea. From skiing and winter days in the snow to hiking, cycling and long days by the lake.
Where to eat
Three places we
happily recommend.
The kitchen in the Woodlander house has everything you need. But if you feel like lunch without cooking or dinner out somewhere, these are three addresses worth remembering.
Through the year
Four different Blidinjes.
Getting here
Closer than
you think.
Several roads lead to Blidinje, and you can reach the Woodlander house without difficulty by car.
From the direction of Posušje you come via Rakitno, from Tomislavgrad via Lipa, and from Mostar via Jablanica and Doljani. All three main approaches are paved.
In the winter months we recommend checking the weather and road conditions before you set off. The main approach roads via Rakitno, Lipa and Doljani are maintained and cleared through the winter.
