Waypoint introductions and full write-ups
1. Jajce
Jajce is a town built around a waterfall. The river Pliva joins the Vrbas right in the middle of town and drops about twenty metres over a lip of tufa into a green pool, with houses and a medieval fortress stacked above. It is one of the few towns in Europe where you can eat lunch within sight and sound of a waterfall that is part of the main street. The old walls climb the hill behind, with a citadel, gate towers and narrow lanes within.

Planning note

2. Travnik
Travnik lies in the narrow valley of the Lašva river, tucked under the steep flank of Vlašić mountain, and for a couple of centuries it was the capital of Ottoman Bosnia. The viziers resided here from the early seventeenth century until the 1850s, and that history gives the town an unusual dignity for its size. A massive old fortress overlooks the centre, the Šarena Mosque, known as the Colourful Mosque, stands in the bazaar, and a clock tower marks the old quarter. Travnik is also the birthplace of Ivo Andrić, the Nobel Prize writer, and his novel Bosnian Chronicle draws on the town's era of foreign consuls and viziers.
