Natural monument of Tajan

Tajan mountain is surrounded with the towns of Zenica, Zavidovici, Zepce, Kakanj and Vares. It is positioned 1297 meters above the sea level and is rich with natural scenery such as canyons, caves, lakes, natural stone bridges, flora, fauna and paleontological findings. Due to these resources Tajan mountain is in the process of being proclaimed natural monument. The process was started on January 30th 2004 by the Mountaineers' association „Tajan“.


We bring several natural phenomena of Tajan worth seeing that has been discovered so far.

CANYONS


Masice canyon is one of the most beautiful canyons in this part of BiH. It was made by tectonics water cutting into the Triassic limestone which split limestone into two parts, Masica and Srednja stijena. It greatest depth is 350 meters. During the period of increased precipitation, when underground channels cannot accept al the water, Suvodol stream flows through the canyon.

Tajasnica canyon is almost completely unexplored. Duboka Tajasnica stream flows through the canyon, plunging from the peaks of Tajan down the numerous cascades.

Suha canyon is filled with speleological objects that are interesting as archaeological and paleontological sights alike. The canyon is specific as the water stops flowing through during the summer months and droughts. This is why the stream is called Suha (dry).

SPELEOLOGICAL OBJECTS (more than 100 registered so far)

ATOM cave is located at the north-eastern slopes of Tajan mountain. Exploring it will last for a long time to come due to its size and inaccessibility. So far, the depth of over 1 km and height of 170 meters have been recorded. It has the potential to be one of the deepest cave in BiH. Further explorations are ongoing.

Lukina pećina (Luka’s cave) is located at the foot of Srednja stijena. It is 200 meters deep with extensive stalactites and stalagmites along. It is also interesting because of findings of bones, fossilized nest and remains of extinct species of the cave bear (Ursus spelaeus) dating back to 15000 ago. The cave is suitable for both adventure and educational tourism.

Omladinska jama (Youth’s cave) is located at Rapta mountain plateau. It is 114 meters deep, with the lower gallery 70 meters deep and 30 meters high. The entire gallery is filled with cave ornaments of all types.



Pećina u Srednjoj stijeni (Cave in Srednja Stijena) is located near Luka’s cave and was discovered in May 2004. It has large galleries of unusual beauty and numerous cave ornaments.


LAKES

„Mašica“ lake was formed in 1985, after a large landslide partitioned Masica stream. The lake is located about 500 meters from the lower entrance to Masica canyon. Its dimension is 100x25 meters and is rich in river trout and crabs.


STONE BRIDGES WITH CAVES

Stone bridges of Suha and Mašica represent limestone phenomena. It is interesting that there are caves underneath each bridge.



These are the only two natural stone bridges with caves in BiH.


FLORA AND FAUNA

FLORA

Several endemic plant species of Dinara system grow in the area of Tajan. Most significant species growing only in the area of Tajan is Gregesenova mlječika (Euphorbia gregersenii fam. Euphorbiaceae). The species is protected and is on the international red list of endangered plant species (1997 IUCN Red list of threatened plants).

Other interesting species include ivy (Hedera helix), located at the entrance to Luka’s cave, more than 30 cm in diameter and endemic species of Bosnian lily (Lilium bosniacum).

The area of Tajan mountain is also rich with medicinal herbs, mushrooms and berries. Some of the species include: thyme, boletus, rujnica (Lactarius deliciosus), lisičarka (Cantharellus cibarius), sunčanica (Macrolepiota procera), blueberries, strawberries, blackberries, raspberries etc.

FAUNA

Tajan is also rich with wild animal species as the area is uninhabited and covered with forest. Black bears, wolves, foxes, roes, rabbits, wild cat, wild boars, martens, pigeons, grouse etc. all inhabit this area. There are also cave species of insects, spiders and reptiles which live in numerous underground cavities.


Bat

Caves are ideal as the winter habitat for black bears and bats which are endangered in Europe (most endangered mammal species). The streams are rich with the river trout and crabs.
