Una-Sana Canton Travel Guide

Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina

'At first, she seemed peaceful and then greeted us with a huge waterfall (Štrbački Buk); several smaller – yet dangerous – waterfalls followed… The waters were warm and greener by the minute. As we left the Croatian border and deepened into Bosnia, the water was emerald-like. Mysterious and deep… Underwater plants looked like green lace, it felt like an ancient story. I took a minute to look around: the forests were sturdy, as they seemed to guide and protect Una. She had lent them a little of her mystery. We were surrounded by wild duck – happy to make our acquaintance – and by giant fish, swimming undisturbed. Her waters were calm now (not a single breath of wind would move them). And as the sun left our sights and the night crawled in, the waters darkened and got cold. Our fascination was still at the highest degree, as we kept paddling and staring at the pink sky. Although hearing stories about the many people she took away through her hidden galleries underground, I never stopped feeling safe. She seemed perfect, flawless.' #waterlust #BestOf5

Guide, protector, and bellevue provider. It helps echo the past, yet exists in the present with a pounding heart.
'Was the sun going to shine on us the following day? It did! Early wake up, breakfast by Una, and we were at our starting point before we knew it – this time in the newly-established Una National Park. Our day on the river started with the usual training before hitting the big waterfalls at the start of the route. As we approached Štrbački Buk, we got out of our raft and walked/climbed for some minutes on the right bank, waiting for our boat and our skipper to join us after the 18-metre waterfall. We knew what we had in store: a 4-metre waterfall and some tricky smaller waterfalls cascading down to another section whose usual rocks we couldn’t see, because the water level was very high. In fact, I didn’t remember to have seen Una that foamy and rich. Ever.' #Waterlust

'Dark, gloomy, and beautiful! As a history buff, I've seen my fair share of castles all around the world, but I was impressed by the structure, setting, and vibe of Ostrozac Castle! I would recommend a visit to this extraordinary place to anybody who's in the area. The sculptures and statues in its courtyard enhance its dramatic charm and the view is glorious - a quintessence of Bosnia's landscape!'
