Tuzla and Mostar

Çap edildi: 11.06.2022

This morning I set off around 8:30 am. First towards Tuzla. On the advice of my landlord, I only used main roads towards Tuzla. He told me that due to heavy rainfall, there could be landslides and floods.

Then came Tuzla, terrible! The outskirts were already repellent. The city itself is a disaster. Dirty, run-down, just not beautiful, I could have saved myself the trouble. I made sure to leave quickly. Maybe Tuzla has some beautiful sides, but I didn't find them.

Off to the mountains. With occasional rain and temperatures dropping to 10 degrees, my navigation system initially led me on gravel roads into the clouds at over 1000 meters. The gravel was very drivable, only a few washouts that didn't cause any problems. I always followed a river that had a lot of water due to the heavy rainfall in the past few days.

The roads got better and led me to Kieseljack. Apparently, the climate zone changed here. The temperatures rose from 15 degrees to 27 degrees in less than an hour.

I continued along a large reservoir, which was located in a wide and beautiful canyon, further towards Mostar.

When I arrived in Mostar, I wanted to check into my hotel. No chance. There was nobody there, and nobody could be reached by phone. So I canceled via Booking.com and looked for the next hotel. That was quickly found. A great landlady, very nice and helpful. It's the Guest House City Star. Highly recommended.

Then off to the old town. It wasn't as crowded as I expected. But souvenir stand after souvenir stand. Great 😬. So I wandered around a bit. There are still many war ruins in Mostar. The heavy shelling is still visible in many houses. However, large parts of the old town have been lovingly restored. Highly recommended.

Tomorrow I will continue towards Montenegro.


One more note: Bosnia is contaminated with mines. I downloaded an app that alerts me when I get close to a minefield. At no point during my trip to Bosnia was I more than 4 km away from any minefields.
