- Description
-
The trail starts from the Jezero locality, and goes through the forest to the amphitheater and the main climbing area in the Botin rock. At that exact point there is a crossroad: to the right the hiking trail continues towards the Jaram pass, while the ferrata trail goes steeply to the left along the rocky trail all the way to the cable.
From the Jaram pass, the trail continues along the southern side of Velež mountain all the way to the junction with the trail that comes from Podveležje. This is the locality of Gornji Kružanj, part of the route of the great Herzegovinian transversal. From there both trails continue to the top of Botin. The total length in both directions is a little less than 24km.
