Trebević

Trebević is a mountain peak on the southern edge of Sarajevo rising to 1,629 meters (5,344 feet) and spanning regions on both sides of the city. The mountain has forested slopes, open areas for views, and various access points including a cable car station and multiple trailheads.

The peak gained international attention during the 1984 Winter Olympics when it hosted bobsled races on a specially built track. This event brought global recognition and shaped the mountain's modern identity.

The mountain serves as a gathering place where locals spend time throughout the year hiking, mountain biking, and enjoying winter sports on its slopes. People use the natural surroundings for outdoor celebrations and time with family.

A renovated cable car from the Bistrik neighborhood provides quick access to the upper slopes, while drivers can reach the Brus station and hikers have multiple marked trails to choose from. Weather conditions vary by season, so visitors should plan accordingly and wear proper footwear.

An abandoned bobsled track from the 1984 Olympics sits on the mountain slopes as an unusual concrete structure surrounded by forest. This leftover course provides a tangible reminder of the sporting event that once brought the world to this location.
