Demićka
river in Bosnia and Herzegovina
Demićka is a river that flows through Bosnia. It is the largest left bank tributary of the Vrbanja river.
The Demićka rises above the Dunići village at around 1,050 meters above sea level, on the southern slopes of Zāstinje (Backstones, 1,230 m), in Vlašić massif. The river's length is around 10 km.
The Demićka streams northwest through Dèmići village between the Radohova and Stražbenica mountains. The river mouth is in Šiprage. Downstream of its source, the Demićka enters a short canyon below Dunići village, known as Dunića stijene (Dunići's Rocks), followed by a funnel-shaped area near its estuary. Below Dunići, the river enters a vertical ravine with a depth of 400 meters.
In spring Vrbanja's tributaries (Ćorkovac, Sadika, Duboka and Ugar's confluence of Kobilja and other streams) flow. The main tributaries of Demićka are Grozničavica, Djevojački potok and Brestovača.

Why this record matters
“Demićka” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Demićka, river and Bosnia provides the most credible route into that argument.
The strongest evidence will usually combine a dated visual record with documents produced by the authority responsible for the place. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 12, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q17370809. Authority coordinates are 44.464, 17.555. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 1 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank.
Modern boundaries and familiar names can conceal earlier jurisdictions or structures that do not align with the present site. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
