Drina National Park, established in 2017, is located in the eastern part of Bosnia and Herzegovina, near the border with Serbia. The park covers a portion of the Drina River, renowned for its striking turquoise waters. It extends over approximately 64,000 acres, offering visitors a mixture of deciduous and evergreen forests where remarkable plant species and diverse wildlife flourish. Some notable wildlife includes bears, wolves, chamois, and a variety of bird species. The area is steeped in history, with remnants of ancient civilizations and evidence of human settlement dating back to the Neolithic period. Key recreational opportunities include hiking along numerous trails, fishing in the clear waters of the Drina, and exploring historical sites. The dramatic landscapes and panoramic views from the park's elevated points are photographer's favorites.
