The forested Olympic plateau above Vrelo Bosne, with the abandoned 1984 ski-jump ramps (a haunting, photogenic ruin), cross-country trails, and cool pine air that's a summer escape from the city heat.

- Nordic skiing
- forest walks.
the derelict ski-jump towers are an unforgettable, slightly melancholy photo stop — easy to reach by car.
