Except for sking, the dense pine forests and soft, rolling hills on the high plateau are perfect walking, biking and hiking terrain. It is strongly advised to make use of of the offer of local guides and activity organizers for these activities.



Don't leave Vlasic without buying some Vlasicki sir (cheese). Foreign markets have just got wind of this heavenly, white, salty cheese and the organic and traditional way of preparing it only adds to your appreciation of this local delicacy. The road that passes by Vlasic, from Donji Vakuf to Travnik, is lined with dozens of shops selling it.
