A short guide about River / Canal Cruising to BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA
Best known for the Balkan conflict of the 90s this beautiful gem of a country has moved on. Although still unknown to many, it has a great deal to offer travellers; a beautiful countryside with fresh open space, a thriving arts scene, and plenty of sporting opportunities’.
Bosnia and Herzegovina is located in the central part of the Balkan Peninsula. North, west and south-west boundary lines divide Bosnia and Herzegovina from the Republic of Croatia, and east and south boundary lines from Serbia and Monte Negro. The coastal line of Bosnia and Herzegovina lies upon the Adriatic Sea, around the town of Neum, and is about 21 km long.
Bosnia and Herzegovina consists of four large geographic units. Central Bosnia includes the mountainous area in the central part of Bosnia. This is the most developed part of the country that for a long time was a crossroad of various influences and interests of neighbouring Pannonian, Karst, and Mediterranean regions. "High Karst" of Bosnia and Herzegovina consists of the mountainous Karst area of west Bosnia and Herzegovina. This is the part of the country with the smallest population and is the least developed part - only 9% of its territory is cultivable and less than 30% of the entire population lives in the cities of this part. The Mediterranean region, Low Herzegovina is situated in the central-coastal region behind a mountain, and is the smallest of the four geographic units of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
