The “youngest” national park in Bosnia and Herzegovina, “Una” records an increase number of visits.
Clean water and air, local cuisine and hospitality, and the cult of personality of Josip Broz Tito, bring tourists from all over the world.
This destination is a special challenge for fishermen because, as locals claim, the fish is intelligent and rarely took the bait.
Legend says that the ancient Romans, warriors who have been through many warfare and conquest and somehow hardened on their trips and lost their sense of beauty, were stunned by the beauty of this river.
They were enjoying in unprecedented emerald green water and water falls like a fairytale, vivid and pristine coastline and beautiful surrounding landscapes.
One of these Romans, fascinated by the scenery, exclaimed, “Una!” (“One” or “only”). Well, that warrior expressed all the beauty of this river with a single exclamation. When he shouted “One!” he wanted to show that such a beautiful river does not exist anywhere else, it is a unique gem. Thus, they say, the river got its name, which remained to this day.
