Čvrsnica (, ) is a mountain in the Dinarides of Bosnia and Herzegovina, located in northern Herzegovina. Most of the mountain is located in the Herzegovina-Neretva Canton municipalities of Mostar and Jablanica, while a small part of it, around 10%, is located in the municipality of Posušje. Pločno is the highest peak at 2,228 metres above sea level.

Čvrsnica is surrounded by the river Neretva (20 km) and Diva Grabovica canyon (6.2 km), which cuts into the mountain from the east, the Neretva tributaries Doljanka (18 km) from the north and Drežanka (19.8 km) from the south, and Dugo Polje karstic field (12 km) and Vran mountain from the west. There are more than ten summits above 2,000 m (Pločno 2,228 m, Veliki Jelinak 2,179 m, Veliki Vilinac 2,118 m, etc.), large vertical cliffs (Pesti Brdo, Mezica Stijene, Strmenica, etc.), and the mountain consists of several plateaus — Plasa and Muharnica on north, Mala Čvrsnica on south. Čvrsnica along with Vran, Dugo Polje, and other mentioned karstic features form the spacious Blidinje plateau, which also includes lakes of Blidinje, Crepulja and Crvenjak.
