Buško Lake

Buško jezero je umjetna akumulacija sa površinom od 55,92 km2. Nalazi na južnom dijelu Livanjskog polja, dvije trećine površine jezera pripadaju općini Tomislavgrad a jedna trećina pripada općini Livno. Jezero je nastalo 1972. godine potapanjem Buškog blata, koje je bilo tipično krško polje kroz koje je tekla Ričina. Voda akumulirana u jezeru koristi se za proizvodnju električne enrgije u HE Orlovac. Buško jezero nudi različite aktivnosti kao što su: jedrenje u malim jedrilicama, jedrenje na dasci uz obilje povoljnog vjetra, veslanje, kajak, kanu, skijanje na vodi, plivanje i kupanje u ljetnim mjesecima te kampiranje uz samu obalu jezera. Potencijali za razvoj turizma na ovom području su veliki stoga je vrlo važno što prije osigurati kvalitetne i sigurne uslove za domaće i strane turiste. Posebno treba istaći činjenicu da je ovo područje (Buško jezero i Livanjsko polje) stanište za mnoge vrste ptica. Izgradnjom akumulacije Buško jezero postojeća vegetacija je potpuno uništena, a izvan brane Kazaginac prisutna je vegetacija bara, močvara i slatkih voda sa vrstama: Myriophyllum spicatum, M. verticillatum, Potamogeton perfoliatus, Veronica beccabunga, Glyceria fluitans, Sparganium macrocarpum i druge.

Ričina Spring- Cave

Ričina Spring-Cave has both a spring and a cave, as its name suggests. The spring comes into full force during strong hydrological activities. The cave represents the entrance to the powerful karst spring. This cave actually marks the end of the "disappearing" river Šujica (it is a subterranean river). The cave is located on the east side of Buško Lake. It is 490m long and has 3 entrances.
