Bosnia and Herzegovina is a south-eastern European federal state, which is mostly located in the Dinaric Mountains. The country only has a narrow corridor to the Adriatic at Neum. The highest elevation of the country, which is characterized by low mountain ranges, is on the Maglić massif at 2386 m above sea level on the border with Montenegro. The climate can be described as Mediterranean to continental. The Dinaric Mountains are largely covered by forest. There are four national parks in Bosnia and Herzegovina, all of which have been established to protect nature. Like its neighboring countries, Bosnia and Herzegovina lies in the 'Blue Heart of Europe'. The establishment of the Blue Heart of Europe aims in particular to promote the conservation of biodiversity by particularly protecting the rivers of the Balkans. The bird life is fascinating, especially when it comes to birds of prey and falcons. BirdLife International has registered four areas as IBAs (Important Bird Areas), i.e. areas of global importance for the bird live.
