Una National Park, which was established 6 years ago, is one of its kind in the territory of the FBiH and it represents a key factor for the tourist development of the Una-Sana Canton. It attracts more and more nature lovers every year.
The most deserving for its branding and a good word in the country and the region is the management of the Una National Park led by director Amarildo Mulic. The best proof for that is the fact that the National Park Una received the plaque for the best tourist-business project in the year of 2017 within the official academy that was held in Cazin on the occasion of the Day of Europe, and Amarildo Mulic, the director of the National Park Una, received the plaque for a remarkable contribution to the development and promotion of tourism in BiH.
Considering that tourism is a second branch of the economy globally, right behind the automotive and oil industries, everything is indicating that BiH, and especially the Una-Sana Canton, which is also known as the Green Canton due to its forests, rivers and other natural beauties, have great potential and opportunity for development through this branch of the economy.
The Una National Park as the number one destination in the western part of BiH, together with its partners from Zagreb, recently created one idea or the vision for the development of the continental riviera of the spring of Una River in Suvaja that is located in the Republic of Croatia, up to Sava River. All of this was conceived on the principle of sustainable tourism and development and under the name “Unaland – Land of Water Magic”.
“We put the code name “Project 424” considering the length of Una River of 212 kilometers and we said that Una Riviera has 424 kilometers of coastline that we all have to protect together. Therefore, the main goal is to protect and preserve the beauty of the continental Riviera, but also, to use all of its potentials and use them for economic development. The project is still in the phase of the idea and we are now gathering all interested parties: the institutions, cities, municipalities, cantons, ministries, business subjects and the non-governmental sector in a way that we say to everyone that this is the direction of development that we should go for, and then work on creating certain projects under which we will develop the vision, or the conceptual direction of the development of the continental riviera on the basis of the bilateral, trilateral and multilateral relations. This represents a long-term vision of the development, which is made of series of small projects and steps,” stated Mulic.
