Driving from Sarajevo to Mostar is one of the most beautiful routes in Europe. With a Bosnia & Gulf rental car, you have the freedom to stop whenever you see something breathtaking.
Konjic – The Gateway to Herzegovina: Your first stop after leaving Sarajevo. This charming town is famous for its Old Stone Bridge (Stara Ćuprija) and the stunning view where the mountains meet the river. It’s the perfect place for your first Bosnian coffee by the water.
As you continue your journey southward, the landscape transforms dramatically. Leaving Konjic behind, the road enters the most iconic part of the drive: the breathtaking Neretva Canyon. It unfolds before you, offering some of the most magnificent views in Europe.
Prepare to be mesmerized by the turquoise waters of the Neretva River, winding its way through towering, emerald-colored cliffs and rugged limestone rocks. With a Bosnia & Gulf vehicle, you have the freedom to pull over at the best viewpoints, breathe in the fresh mountain air, and capture photos that will last a lifetime.
As you exit the canyon, the valley opens up and leads you into Jablanica. This town is a legendary stop where history meets tradition. You cannot miss the iconic Museum of the Battle for the Wounded, where the famous destroyed bridge still lies in the Neretva River as a silent witness to history.
Just a short drive further, the narrow canyon walls broaden to reveal the stunning Jablanica Lake. This serene expanse of water marks your arrival in a region known for its unique culinary heritage. Famous across the Balkans for the best traditional roasted lamb, the area offers several local restaurants where you can enjoy an authentic lunch break.
It is a perfect spot to park your Bosnia & Gulf vehicle, stretch your legs by the water, and recharge before the final scenic stretch to Mostar.
The Final Jewel: Mostar & Blagaj
Finally, a scenic drive brings you to the sunny streets of Mostar. Known for its iconic Old Bridge (Stari Most), this UNESCO World Heritage site is where history, culture, and stunning architecture meet. It’s the perfect place to park your Bosnia & Gulf vehicle and lose yourself in the cobblestone alleys of the Old Bazaar.
But the magic doesn’t stop there. Just a short 15-minute drive from Mostar lies Blagaj Tekke, a 16th-century Dervish monastery built into a 200 meter high cliff. Standing at the source of the Buna River one of the largest and most beautiful springs in Europe it offers a peaceful atmosphere and magnificent views that you simply cannot miss.
