The Law on Proclamation of Protected Landscape of the Trebević Mountain was adopted on 9 April 2014. This law established the protection of the Trebević area and its natural heritage covering 400,20 ha.
The mountain stretches southeast – northwest. The Trebević massif and its ridges are approx 12km long and 8km wide. Its highest peak rises to 1629 m. Trebević has five ridges stretching along SE – NW. The Trebević River and Miljacka Canyon are at the northern and northeastern end of Trebević Mountin; its southern and southwestern portions are Mali i Veliki Stupanj (1522m), Crni vrh (1522m), Veliki Oštrik (1472m) and Mali Oštrik (1453m) which separate it from Jahorina Mountain, Kasindolski Creek in the south, and Sarajevsko Plain in the west. 

Trebević is an important tourist and recreational site largely destroyed during the recent war. A paved road and a cable car (1700 m distance; currently not operating) link Trebevic picnic area with downtown Sarajevo. Its topographic terrain features were ideal for the installment of a combined bobsleigh/luge track where Trebević hosted bobsled races during XIV Winter Olympic Games in 1984.

In 1975, a 60 m tall radio tower was built near the peak, at 1566 m. It is the only telecommunications relay to have survived the 1995 NATO bombing campaign. It is an important communications node for Saraјevo and a broadcast transmitter for many Radio and TV stations.

Public transport

A bus line no. 98 (Latinska Ćuprija – Trebević) operates on weekends and during holidays. The bus leaves at 9:00h and 16:00h and returns from Trebeveć at 10:00h and 17:00h.

By road

To reach Trebević, one can hike, drive, cycle or use a public van. The road leading from Vraca across Trebević toward Jahorina is slightly damaged but good. At the turn to bobsleigh track, the paved road splits and veers to the left. A little farther down the road, it turns into a trail disappearing into the woods.
