For adventurers, eager for challenging mountain biking, but at the same time exciting and indescribable areas, we recommend a demanding cycling tour - the peaks of the Tara canyon through Zavait, Meštrevac, Dulin Brijeg to Vranovina. Vranovina is the name of a village and a locality that covers one half of the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and the other half of the territory of Montenegro. Vranovina is located below the top of Obzir, the highest point in the Tara canyon. From the river to the top the altitude difference exceeds 1400m! From the village of Vranovina, a narrow goat path leads to the heart of the canyon and a place called Markovića mlini, a former mill on the banks of the Tara. Several viewpoints offer a breathtaking view: a large part of the Tara canyon, the highest mountain massif in BiH - Maglić, then Durmitor, Jahorina, Treskavica, Piva mountain, Komovi .. Across the lookout on Vranovina is the canyon of Sushica and from here it is possible to see the place where the two canyons collide, and where Sušica flows into Tara. On one side you can see almost the entire territory of NP "Durmitor" and on the other there is an unreal view of a large part of NP "Sutjeska". Appetizers you must see!

A popular proverb says that hospitality implies the warmth of the hearth, delicious food and the right to silence. You can find all this in the rafting camp Highlander, which is located right next to the river Drina. The silence of nature is a common "spice" of each of our meals.
Whether you are just a casual passerby and want to enjoy a beautiful view of the turquoise green river Drina from our terrace, or you are a guest on a full arrangement, be sure that you will enjoy delicious food in our camp. We will serve our local specialties prepared in the old old-fashioned way with a large selection of domestic and foreign drinks.
The ingredients we use are of domestic origin, from our area and with a valid declaration, and bread, pastries, pies and cakes are kneaded, dried and developed by the skilled hands of our cooks. All food is prepared according to traditional recipes, so guests often ask for a little "repeater".
Before going to any activity (rafting, hiking, canyoning, mountain biking, hiking ....) guests are served "Mountain Breakfast", which aims to provide enough strength and energy to overcome any challenge in nature. Upon your return, you will be greeted by hot soup and veal under the sac, and for dinner, barbecue, fish, and chicken with mushrooms or pie under the sac. Always expect a surprise from sweets, but sweet, like sweets made by our mothers and grandmothers. There will be tulumba, urmašica, and baklava, but also fruit and chocolate cakes, as well as good old donuts and pancakes with Euro cream and ice cream. In a word, many deacons for everyone's taste. They say that tastes are different and should not be discussed, but exciting rafting and accommodation in nature are offered by almost all camps on the banks of the Tara and Drina, but we know that the food we make is what makes us very different and why our guests they return.

The Rafting camp Highlander is located 20 km from Foča and only 5 km from the border crossing Šćepan Field between Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro. It is surrounded by hornbeam trees and is situated in an attractive location on the right side of the Drina River.
Its capacity is 100 beds that have mattresses and clean bedding. Wooden bungalows are made for two, three, four or five people, while the small houses, popularly called “Torarica” are for one or two people (read: for those in love).
The camp has electricity, wireless internet (Wi-Fi), lux bungalow with private bathroom and standard bungalows with shared showers and toilets, with hot and cold drinking water. The restaurant offers local/traditional cuisine in which every guest gets his meal according to paid arrangement. Travelers who just passing by can also get the food of their choice for prices that are official.
Location of the camp Highlander is ideal for rafting, hiking, trekking, mount biking or fly-fishing. It is the starting point for the tours National Park “Sutjeska" and National Park "Durmitor". Mountain peaks Maglic, Durmitor, Bioc and Zelengora are just some of the peaks that are located near the camp. There are also lakes of Zelengora, more precisely nine of them, rainforest Perucica and waterfall Skakavac 73 m high.
In short landscape, that takes the breath away. The nature wonders worth coming back. The location is well connected by road with all the major tourist cities of Bosnia, Montenegrin and Croatian coasts as well - Budva, Herceg Novi, Kotor, Dubrovnik, Trebinje, Sarajevo, Mostar, Visegrad and Zabljak.
If you live in one of these ex yu republics or you are just traveling to these destinations, and you love nature and adventure tourism, we recommend our Rafting camp Higlander.
