Emerald green Neretva river flows through the city, it's a clean and drinkable river, that refreshes and offers different possibilities for water sports, such as white water rafting or canyoning on one of it's tributary. River flows into Jablanicko lake that is located south from the city and it's a great place for relaxation and swimming.

You'll find camps, hotels, restaurants here and you'll get a chance to do different activities, like white water rafting, camping, kayaking, hiking, mountain biking and even paragliding.

Since the beginning of the 20th century Konjic has become known as a city of woodcarving trade. This trade is still nourished today and it's been passed on to the new generations so we can say that this city keeps on with the tradition and it's keeps its legacy alive. You can purchase some of the handmade woodcarving product, or you can order one to be made by your wish. The importance of this trade can be seen through the decision that furniture made by family Niksic, one of the oldest remaining families that still nourishes woodcarving, is now a moving legacy of Bosnia and Herzegovina.When you're in Konjic don't miss the opportunity to visit woodcarving museum 'Mulicev rekord' that is located on the first floor of one of the famous family houses in Konjic, family Mulic. 'Mulicev rekord' company was established in 1929.
