flora

The five main peaks of the Šator tower over a densely forested plateau with beech , fir and spruce trees from 1,500 to 1,600 m. The southern slopes of the mountain range are covered by meadows and in summer are rich in flower vegetation. In the past they served as pasture for cattle.

tourism

The promising mountain, which is snow-capped from November to May, is accessed via a road that leads over a distance of 17 km from Gornje Peulje on the connecting road from Bosansko Grahovo to Livno to Lake Šatorsko jezero ( 1488  m ). This lake is of glacial origin, 250 m long, 120 m wide and 6 m deep. There is a small private lodging house by the lake. Various easy climbs lead from the lake to the summit.
