RE: Yugoslavian Adventures: Part IV
Hey Temnozor, make sure to visit the abandoned bobsleigh track near Sarajevo!
It's such a surreal place to be. It's around a nice two hour uphill hike from the city centre.
Thanks for the tip, I'll look for it if I visit the city again! Is it part of the Olympic installations?
Yes, a huge structure and completely abandoned now. Now it's like an open air graffiti museum.
Awesome, too bad that I missed it. I love abandoned stuff.
Bosnia and Herzegovina in general has a lot of abandoned stuff due to the war as you've probably noticed.
I've been there recently and I think I might as well make a post about some abandoned structures I've visited there.
Oh yeah, whole houses and factories. I noticed most of it while I was driving through the countryside. There are whole bombed out villages that have been overgrown by small forests. It reminded me a bit of Eastern Germany in the 90s, which was a paradise for any URBEX ethusiast (though I was a child at the time).
However, I didn't stray too far from the main touristic routes while I was there. It was an unplaned individual trip from my first student money, I'm perfectly aware that I missed a lot. Just the more reason to revisit, though. :)
