About Jahorina
Jahorina, about 30 km from Sarajevo, hosted the women’s alpine events of the 1984 Winter Olympics and today has the largest ski area in Bosnia and Herzegovina. A gondola and modern chairlifts serve the slopes, and the mountain is well stocked with hotels and restaurants for après-ski. The season usually opens in December, snow permitting, and runs into spring; season and day passes are sold by the Olympic Centre Jahorina, with early-bird offers before winter. In summer the mountain reopens for walking, family activities and fresh mountain air.
