Sarajevo - Post Report Question and Answers
Do you feel that it is safe to walk, run or hike outside? Are there areas where bike riding is possible? What is the availability and safety of outdoor space for exercising? Are these easily accessible?
Walking is safe and pleasant. Hiking is excellent and absolutely gorgeous. Running is more of a mix: most of the year the only concern is watching for traffic when crossing crosswalks, but during the colder months you also need to be on the lookout for dogs if you are outside the downtown areas. There are bike paths in the city that I use 2-3 times a week to commute to work. Commute time is about the same as driving. Not all areas of the city have bike path access, though, so if this is important to you be sure to investigate further. You will also want to look at the terrain; a house on the hillside might not be for you. - Mar 2024
