ボスニア・ヘルツェゴビナの自然の驚異

Natural Wonders of Bosnia and Herzegovina

Bosnia and Herzegovina’s landscape is defined by its karst topography and diverse ecosystems. This collection features the Kravica Waterfall’s tufa cascades on the Trebižat River and Vjetrenica, the world’s most biodiverse cave. High-altitude highlights include the glacial Prokoško Lake on Vranica Mountain and the 100-kilometer-long Dinara range. The list also includes the indented shores of the man-made Ramsko Lake and the Hutovo Blato nature reserve, a major Mediterranean bird sanctuary and wetland habitat.
