Prenj's 11 (Bosnian and Herzegovina)

Description

"Prenj's 11" is a loop traversing all Prenj's peaks higher than 2000 m. It was long considered impossible to climb all 11 of them in one day so it's quite an undertaking. It's not the length that makes it hard as it's really not that long. It's not even the vertical gain that creates problems, which is massive considering the length. It's the terrain that is brutal together with the fact that most of the route is unmarked and off trails what makes it challenging.
