The “House of Rescue” is located in Ština Dol, on the way to Lukomir and the top of the mountain Bjelašnica. That object has its own history. The name itself speaks of how it really was a salvation for many passers-by and mountaineers, during blizzards and strong winds. It mostly benefited the locals who took shelter there from the storm on their way to their villages, as well as the shepherds who looked after their flocks in those areas.
The “House of Rescue” in Ština Dol, on the Bjelašnica mountain, is one of the projects aimed at raising the quality of the tourist offer and promoting tourism in the area of the municipality of Trnovo.
