Summer on the Olympic mountain
Two and a half kilometres down through the forest.
The Alpine Coaster is a mountain toboggan on rails, 2.5 kilometres long, descending through the forest with a view of the peaks and the reservoir. You control the speed yourself, so the same track suits children and thrill-seekers alike. The Poljice gondola carries you up, and the panoramic ride is a reason to come in its own right. From Hotel Forest it is about eight kilometres to the start.

A descent at your own pace
The sled runs on rails and the brake is in your hands - you can take it slowly and look around, or let the track do its work. That is why the Alpine Coaster works as well for families as for groups chasing adrenaline, and why it is rarely ridden only once.
The climb to the start runs on the same rails, so there is no walking uphill with equipment. Check age and height limits before riding, as the youngest go accompanied by an adult.
The Poljice gondola
The panoramic ride lifts you above the tree line, where the landscape opens towards Romanija and the distant ridges. In summer the meadows are full of flowers that spend winter under two metres of snow, and the air is noticeably fresher than in the valley.
Many guests ride the gondola with no other activity at all - for the view, a coffee at the top and an hour of quiet. It is the easiest way to experience the mountain without effort, which suits older guests and unhurried days.
AdventureAdrenaline parkZip Line, Tower, Butterfly, Nautic Jet, Loopster and Sky Dive - for those who prefer the mountain from another angle.
LakeOn the waterPedal boats, kayaks and water balls, in mountain surroundings and a temperature that suits summer.
FamilyFor childrenA children’s park, trampolines, tubing and a bike course - enough to fill a day without asking what is next.
NatureWalking and cyclingPrepared trails from 2.5 to 13 kilometres lead through pastures, forest and viewpoints, including the Love Trail, the Health Trail and the sports route.
The Olympic bar at 1,879 metres
With over 700 square metres and a view of the lake and the peaks, the Olympic bar is a natural start or finish to a day on the mountain. Traditional cooking and local produce, exactly when energy after the coaster and the gondola asks for a pause.
A day that returns to Forest
Eight kilometres means you do not have to exhaust the mountain in a single day. The coaster and gondola in the morning, the terrace in the afternoon, and something entirely different tomorrow - Ravna Planina, Orlovača Cave or Sarajevo.
Attractions run according to season, maintenance and weather, so check the official Jahorina Olympic Centre schedule shortly before setting off.
