RECOMMENDED1 dayBEST TIMEApril – OctoberIDEAL FORCurious travelers, families, nature and unusual stories

✦ FIRST VISIT

In Visoko, combine the town’s documented history with a visit to the Ravne complex. Allow a full day for the local museum, medieval Visoki and one site promoted by the Foundation as part of a pyramid complex.

✦ Why it is worth visiting

Tunnels, green hills and one of Bosnia's greatest mysteries.

Visoko draws visitors with the story of the alleged Bosnian Pyramids, the Ravne tunnels and the landscaped Ravne 2 park. Claims that the surrounding hills are ancient pyramids are not accepted by mainstream archaeology, but the site has become a popular attraction worth visiting with curiosity and an open mind.
