When you are in Medjugorie - just go there and see it. Your efforts will be fulfilled. Very important place for catholic people. A frequently visited place where Our Lady apparitions have been said to have occurred since 1981. This is a beautiful and peaceful place of prayer, even if you are not religious. The climb is suitable for the physically strong people. The Vatican's positive judgment of the spiritual experience connected to Medjugorje highlighted: "abundant conversions; a frequent return to the sacraments, particularly, the Eucharist and reconciliation; many vocations to priestly, religious and married life; a deepening of the life of faith; a more intense practice

This is a pilgrimage to the hill where Theotokos appeared to the children. It is a place of worship and requires respect. The approach is quite difficult and dangerous because it is a climb of about 500m. between mite and slippery rocks, it needs sports shoes and a lot of care because a fall into the rocks is sure injury. At the top of the hill there is the statue of the Virgin Mary and a large Statue with the Crucified Jesus Christ. The atmosphere is overwhelming and several pilgrims climb naked. The view is unique. Really worth a visit!

I have been around Medjugorje several times, but I have never been able to climb the Hill of Apparitions. First of all, you are struck by the huge number of stalls with hundreds of souvenirs with the image of Our Lady, you can even buy a lighter. In the parking lot you can even buy olive oil and, interestingly, rakija :) The approach to the Hill is unpleasant. Lots of slipping stones, you have to be really careful not to fall. It's not far though, about 15/20 minutes and you're at the top. This is a place where you can pray to Our Lady in concentration, it is quiet here despite the large number of people visiting this place. You can go down a different path than you went up, but both are unpleasant to walk on.
