Royal Stage was to conquer Pločno, the peak of Čvrsnica mountain at elevation of 2.228 meters over the sea level. Steep gravel road was difficult to cycle, but with a little bit of stubbornes, it was totally doable. At the top we had a beer at the military radio relay station - thanks a lot and we won't tell anyone.
The crew that conquered Pločno: Nunar, Tuši, Štefe, Šivic, Bađo, Nada, Uroš and Tona. Slavc was too quick for the photographer.
Čvrsnica is a mountain in the Dinarides of Bosnia and Herzegovina, located in northern Herzegovina, most of the mountain is located in the Herzegovina-Neretva Canton municipalities of Mostar and Jablanica while the smaller part of the mountain, around 10% is located in the municipality of Posušje. The highest peak (Pločno) is 2228 metres high.

Back to our 3 day home, Orlova stina mountain lodge.
Blidinje lake is the direct result of a glacial retreat, but according to the Poklečani Parishes office documents, lake is, also, a product of anthropogenic intervention and activities of human inhabitants. According to these documents, in order to keep the water that is lost through the subterranean passage, local residents and cattle breeders sealed sinkholes with branches and clay, so that water could not find its way underground. Therefore, the lake was formed. Its surface area varies between 2,5 and 6 km², while its average depth is 1,9 m, with altitude of 1.184 m a.s.l.
