Overview of mountain biking route:
Čemerno – Zelengora MTB route is situated in the east area of Bosnia and Herzegovina on Zelengora mountain. This route is fast and easy. Most of the trail is situated on dry and rocky carriageway from Čemerno to Kalinovik. This is point to point route from Čemerno to lake named Jugovo Jezero. For comeback I rode on the same trail and the total length is 52.6 km. The route can be combined with Tjentište – Zelengora, Čemerno – Volujak and Čemerno – Lebršnik routes.
