Overview of mountain biking route:

Vitorog MTB route is situated in the south west part of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Glamoč city is the starting point of the route. The complete trail is dry and rocky. The end point of the route is Vitorog peak at elevation of 1906 meters over the sea level. There are the ruined military hut and the ruins of radio relay station on the peak. As the option I included the ride from Rajićka village to the valley named Čardak Livade.





 
Getting there: Europe, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Sarajevo, Bugojno, Livno, Glamoč or coming from Croatia you can choose direction Split, Sinj, Trilj, Kamensko, Livno, Glamoč.

Description of MTB route:




 

The starting point of the mountain bike route is the crossroad situated on the highway from Glamoč to Mrkonjić Grad. The crossroad is near the airfield and 3 kilometres from Glamoč. Coming from Glamoč turn right on the crossroad and ride on wide unpaved road to the east course across the  field Glamočko Polje. In Dubrave  village follows the ascent to the plateau below Vitorog mountain. Proceed straight on all next crossroads until you reach Pribelja village on the west side of Vitorog mountain. The carriageway leads to north west course than in turns above Rajićka village to the east course. Just near the Rajićka village there is a hard visible junction. As the option you can turn left and proceed on the carriageway along the meadows to the valley named Čardak Livade. For Vitorog peak ride straight on the rocky carriageway. The ascent leads to the field named Kovačevića Polje. There is a crossroad at the end of the field. Turn right and proceed straight to Vitorog peak. There are ruins of the tower and military hut near the peak. Proceed near the house and the steep & rocky carriageway leads to the peak.  From the peak I rode back to Glamoč on the same trail except I turned right near the Rajićka village and rode to the Čardak Livade valley where is the spring of drinking water named Kačarevo Vrelo. For more details check above Map and below Gallery of the route.
