Velika Aleja is an attractive walking area which runs from the thermal bath complexes in Ilidža to Vrelo Bosne, the most popular picnic spot in Sarajevo.

The lane is 3.5 kilometers long and is lined with around 3,000 chestnut and plane trees that are over 100 years old.

For quite some distance along both sides of the lane, there are luxurious villas which were built during the period of Austro-Hungarian rule in Bosnia and Herzegovina and provided members of high society with restful surroundings in untouched nature.

Visitors can take a ride along Velika Aleja in a horse-drawn carriage. Such carriages have been in operation since 1895 and still serve as a Sarajevo attraction.

The price for a one-way ride is 15 KM.
