Rafting parking, weekend crowds
M18, Bastasi, Bosnia and Herzegovina
Been here?
This is a very large parking area near the rafting camps on the Drina River. Access is relatively narrow and steep, and the area can become very busy at weekends, with at least 300 cars and visitors during rafting periods. Security allowed one overnight stay, but the parking surface is not completely level.

Massive parking Spot. There were at least 300 serbien, bosnien and Montenegro cars/visitors who stayed at the camps for rafting. Wouldn't recommend the spot at weekends. Pretty full but found a spot in the last corner. Arrived at 8pm, fell asleep, left at 5pm. Quick sneaky action.
Relatively narrow and steep access road. Three rafting camps have been built here over the last three years. It was quite busy on a Saturday in May, but after politely asking security, we were allowed to stay for one night.
Only if you have to have emergency place to sleep. During our stay, there was a concert - really loud music until 2 am. Moreover, during the high season, there are many cars and people passing bye as someone mentioned the parking is sloppy. We wanted to use the shower in one of the camps but the owner didn’t allow us. What’s the worst that there is no WC there and no place to hide if needed.
Decent parking area for spending the night. The lot is large and paved, but not completely flat. It is very quiet and nobody disturbed us; only some dogs came to keep us company. It is not far from the main road, just before the border with Montenegro. The road in Bosnia is really terrible: unpaved and full of potholes!
