In ring-like shape, Hajdučka Vrata were created by natural rock formation, and it has been standing at the edge of the Diva Grabovica canyon for centuries. The arch of the ring is about 5 meters in diameter.

The easiest way to reach Hajdučka Vrata is from Jablanica to Blidinje. From there, you will look for a road sign marked Muharnica and go toward Vitlenica through a macadam road. Once you reach Vitlenica, your trail starts.

The trail is 8.5 km long and takes about 3.5 – 4 hours of walking. After 3 kilometers you will reach Zaglavlje mountain lodge where the trail forks for the Vilinac lodge and Hajdučka vrata.  On your way, you should also stop by Lake Crvenjak.
