The project has been technically completed, followed by an official inspection attended by representatives of the Municipality of Gacko, UNDP as co-financier, as well as contractors and project supervisors.

According to the Municipality of Gacko, the next step is the training of personnel who will operate the zip line, planned for next week. In addition, the delivery of seven inflatable canoe boats included in the project is expected by the end of the year.

The zip-line route stretches approximately 549 meters, running entirely above the lake at heights ranging from 30 to 10 meters. The starting point is located next to the local asphalt road connecting Gacko with nearby villages, while the finish point is positioned on the opposite shore of Lake Klinje, on cliffs rising directly from the water.

The entire descent takes place over the lake, ending near Gacko’s most popular swimming area with a well-maintained beach. Transport for users back to the starting point will be provided via inflatable canoes operated by trained staff.

Management of the zip-line facility will be entrusted to the public institution “Cultural and Sports Center” Gacko.

Local authorities express hope that these new attractions will draw a large number of tourists and visitors, further enhancing and developing the municipality’s tourism potential. According to available information, no similar zip-line of this format currently exists elsewhere in the Herzegovina region.
