The Lelija mountains were not part of the frontline during the
land mines and unexploded ordnance.[2]
Therefore, Lelija is an attractive destination for spring that is located on the trail to Velika Lelija summit, but it has long fallen into oblivion. What remains is a beautiful hike in an area that doesn't see many visitors.[3]
