About
Strbacki Buk is a waterfall on the Una River in Bosnia and Herzegovina, about 24 metres high. Local visitors and travellers alike count it among the country's most beautiful natural sights, and it makes a good stop for anyone who wants to spend time outdoors in the Balkans.
What to expect
The water comes down in a broad cascade, and the fall throws up a fine mist. That spray keeps the rocks and the plants around the base lush and green, so the area feels fresh even on a warm day. The setting is quiet and natural, a welcome change from town streets and busy roads.
