Mount
Johorina and other high mountain regions, have become winter sports
centres.
Mount
Johorina lies very near to Sarajevo and is covered with snow for a
large part of the year – from November to the middle of May. The
summit of Jahorina (1,916 metres above sea level) and several lesser
peaks are accessible by a number of ski lifts. Many sporting events
are held on this mountain and its favourable natural conditions, its
comfortable accommodation facilities and conveniences, and it is not
by chance that Sarajevo has been chosen as the location for the 1984
Winter Olympics.
