Abstract: Jahorina, with mountains Igman, Bjelasnica and Trebević was the site of the Winter Olympics in 1984. Located in the southeastern part of the Serb Republic, differs from the neighboring mountains, on the basis of natural resources, it was declared natural asset of the nature park, which enabled the development of tourism activities. Successive development, primarily of the winter tourism, initiated the construction of tourist and other facilities, as well as technical and tourist infrastructure. This paper analyzes the existing and planned technical infrastructure which includes: transport, energy, water and telecommunications systems, as well as the tourism infrastructure necessary for the operation of various types of mountain tourism. Technical infrastructure is seen at three levels: main, local and communal/zonal. Tourist infrastructure is focused on locations that are activated or are planned to be equiped with certain technical systems. After the analysis of existing and planned technical and tourist infrastructure are given the surpluses and deficits at the tourist zones/sites and determine the priorities for reconstruction, upgrading and new construction of traffic, energy, water and telecommunications networks and facilities. Emphasis is placed on a synchronized phased construction of technical and tourist infrastructure, which can form an elite ski destination. In parallel with these activities, the main aim of spatial development of the mountain area should be the protection and presentation of exceptional natural resource of Jahorina mountain, according to high standards and norms established by the European and national documents, with the possibility of sustainable development that will not disrupt the balance of natural systems.

Key words: technical infrastructure, tourism infrastructure, tourism, synchronized development, mountain Jahorina
