This round walk on Sarajevski Ozren starts by heading to Nahorevo, to Dragan's hut, via Sedam vrela to Bukovik, then returns to the starting point via Skakavac. The way to Bukovik isn't demanding. When you descend from Bukovik, you can take a break at the lodge. After that the road leads through the forest to Skakavac.

The trails at Skakavac are well-maintained and marked, with hand rails installed along some stretches.

Although Skakavac is some 100 metres high, it has a rather low flow rate. From the waterfall take the fores road to the starting point.

Turn-by-turn directions

The turn to Bukovik via Sedam vrela is just before the wooden gate of the protected nature monument Skakavac. The road is marked with a wooden signpost and leads to the right, uphill.

Take the marked road east across Sedam vrela, through the forest. When you come out to the meadow, turn left (north) by the first houses and go uphill to the peak Bukovik. Descend from the peak on the other side all the way to the lodge, then take the marked road north to the waterfall Skakavac. Go down the road to the foot of the waterfall and head back to the starting point on the road through the forest.
