In the embrace of white snowflakes and snow cover

Olympic Center Bjelašnica – Igman is only 25 kilometers from Sarajevo. Over the course of the year it has more than 200 days of snow, and in case of insufficient snowfall, it has a snowmaking system. So don't worry about a thing — just choose your skis or board, relax and enjoy! A certain part of the slopes is lit with competition lighting for all night-skiing enthusiasts.

The resort covers three skiing destinations: Babin Do on Bjelašnica, whose slopes rank among the very best in Europe, and Veliko Polje and Malo Polje on Igman. The Babin Do ski area has eight ski runs and five children’s runs, three cable cars and five ski lifts, which also lead to the very top of Bjelašnica at 2,067 m. For skiers, this mountain beauty offers 14,000 m of alpine ski slopes, while the total length of the runs on Igman is 2,000 m. Because of its location in the middle of a pine forest, the air quality at Veliko Polje is considered one of the best in Europe.

Sending you lots and lots of Nordic greetings from Igman

A magnificent, inspiring mountain, a blend of natural beauty and tradition, it attracts not only locals but visitors from all over the world. Among them are many Nordic skiing enthusiasts. They come with the same wish — to relax, let go, and enjoy the winter idyll and the mountain adventures that Igman offers.

Cross-country skiers on a perfectly groomed track, with every stride — whether in free or classic style — enjoy this healthy sport, which works all the muscles evenly, while every breath fills their lungs with clean mountain air. Surrounded by the snow-covered mountain peaks of Igman, under a blue and sunny sky, it really is priceless.

During the Olympics, Nordic discipline competitions were held at Veliko Polje, and together with Bjelašnica it has around 50 kilometers of Nordic cross-country trails, as well as 160 marked mountain biking trails.

Malo Polje is located in a peaceful area, which makes it an ideal destination for ski schools for young skiers and hikers.

Sport + fun = snowboarding on Bjelašnica

Bjelašnica is especially loved by recreational riders and athletes who enjoy its slopes on a single board. Whether you ride the dedicated snowboard park or the regular runs, snowboarding fun on Bjelašnica is guaranteed. The more challenging runs and steeper cliffs of Bjelašnica are a real treat for the slightly braver and more experienced riders.

Sledding – one of the most beautiful memories from childhood

For one of the most beloved and beautiful childhood memories — sledding — you don't need expensive equipment or talent. All that matters is the wish to feel, if only for a moment, that childhood joy again, and to create new sledding memories with your little ones that you'll remember for the rest of your life.

On Bjelašnica you can sled on a small, 50-meter-long run, which is well laid out and equipped with everything parents and their little ones need for a day full of laughter and sledding. Sledding and ski tubing runs can also be found 3 km away in Javorov Do. Experience a magical snowy fairy tale with your family on Bjelašnica and Igman, one you can continue in the evening in your apartment to the sound of a crackling fire and a cup of hot tea, then drift off peacefully wishing that fairy tale comes true again tomorrow.
