WHAT DOES THE KOSTAJNICA "KESTENIJADA" OFFER TO VISITORS?

Every year, in mid-October, Kostajnica celebrates the days dedicated to the sweet chestnut through various cultural, entertainment, and tourist activities.

"Kestenijada" is a tourist, cultural, and economic event that has been held in Kostajnica since 1998.

The idea for this festival arose due to the area's rich natural resources, particularly its abundance of sweet chestnut forests.

The festival lasts for three days and offers a variety of activities.

This year, "Kestenijada" will take place from October 11 to 13, 2024.

During the event, the streets of Kostajnica are filled with the aroma of roasted chestnuts, thanks to people who roast and share them with visitors.

Socializing, singing, and dancing are an integral part of Kestenijada, with musicians further enhancing the joyful atmosphere with their performances.
