Meokrnje (1,425 m) is a mountain in Central Bosnia (Bosnia and Herzegovina, in the masiff chain of internal Dinaris mountains. This is the greatest elevation between Vlašić (1933 m) (the southwest) and Manjača (1358 m) - the northeast.
The nearest populated places are Jeezera and Željezno Polje (Iron Field) (east), i.e. Šiprage and Korićani (west).[1][2][3][4]
On the slopes of Meokrnja there is the watershed ("Prelivode") between the basins of Bosnia (east), Bila (south), Ugar and Ilomska (west - southwest) and Vrbanja river (northwest).
The mountain is rich in mixed and coniferous forests, especially its southwestern slopes (along to Ilomska and Ugar). Its ridge leads unregulated communications Gluha Bukovica - Kruševo Brdo - Šiprage.[5]
