Ilomska is a confluence of the Ugar river (Bosnia). It is about 20 km in length, and its source is Vlašić's Mountain. It is an essential body of water for surrounding wildlife.

Ilomska flows between the Žežnička greda (altitude 1,477 m) and Javorak (1,499 m) mountains. It has a curved flow around Lisina (1,494 km) and Runjavica (1,316 km) mountains, through coniferous (abies, puca) and mixed conifero-beech's woods.

Its flow below Petrovo polje (en.: Peter's plain),[1] has sharp curves.[2][3][4]

The richest contributors to Manatovac (large stream) are Mala Ilomska (Little Ilomska) and Devetero vrela (Nine springs), and Crna rijeka (Black River). At the Ravni omar (mountain meadows), below Lisina Mountain, it enters a narrow highland continuing to “Korićanski most” (Korićani's Bridge), and a deep canyon below Korićanske stijene and Marića stijene (Marići's Rocks).

After two attractive waterfalls, Ilomska flows into the Ugar, a few kilometers downstream from Vitovlje village. The height of the bigger water flow is even (around) 40 meters. Waterfalls in this wildness are attract mountain-climbers, tourists and fishermen, and the vertical rocky wall under the river's falls is suitable for alpinist exercises.[5][6][7]

Abow Ilomska River there is Korićani Village and a canyon below it (Korićanske stijene), the scaffold of more than 200 Bosniaks and Croats – the victims of the Serbs Police and Army forces (on August 21, 1992), which was improved by The ICTY Tribunal in The Hague.[8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]
