About this landmark
Kozara National Park, known as the Beauty of the Krajina, lies in the heart of the mountain of the same name in north-western BiH. Although Kozara's peaks do not exceed a thousand metres, the mountain captivates with its expanse, dense deciduous and coniferous forests, clear streams and gentle viewpoints overlooking the Krajina. Declared a national park back in 1967, it protects rich nature with hundreds of plant species and many animals such as roe deer, wild boar, wolves and foxes.
The park's centre is the Mrakovica plateau, about twenty kilometres from Prijedor, where a memorial zone with a museum also stands. Today Kozara is a real haven for active holidays: it offers marked walking and cycling trails, a sport-climbing crag, a ski centre and many events throughout the year. With fresh mountain air and untouched nature, visitors here find both peace and adventure in one place.
