The Rakitnica Canyon Walk

A high walk along the Rakitnica canyon rim, some six kilometres from Lukomir to Umoljani — two or three hours of alpine meadow, grazing sheep, and the canyon falling away a thousand metres to one side. The still point of the whole crossing, taken on foot.

Best for

Curious travellers who want a local door opened, privately.

Not for

Big-bus itineraries or a fixed, inflexible schedule.
