The Volujak mountains were never affected by heavy combat during the 1992-1995 conflict and mine risk is therefore minimal. Volujak is a relatively wild and remote place though, so hikers should be well prepared. As the approach towards the main peaks of the Volujak range from either sides crosses the international border between BiH and Montenegro a valid passport should be carried. The international border here was established after the Austro-Hungarian Empire occupied Bosnia following the Congress of Berlin in 1878. The Austrians installed a Triangulation device on the summit of Volujak Peak. The pedestal of that device can still be found on the Volujak summit. A rich fauna exists around these mountains. There are several bears that roam the slopes of Volujak. Chamois and large eagles are very likely to be observed in this area. The horses that roam around at Volujak are not wild, but certainly seem to know how to survive without regular supervision.
