Itinerary:
Day 1 Dubrovnik
Arrive in Dubrovnik and transfer to your hotel where you’ll meet the rest of the group.
Day 2 Dubrovnik
A short transfer brings you to Gornji Obod, a nearby village. From here, follow a path up to Strazisce Peak and admire the amazing views back over Dubrovnik. This afternoon enjoy a city tour of the old town.
Day 3 Dubrovnik to Brac
Take a three hour bus transfer to Tucepi where you will begin walking through the Biokovo Mountains to Makarska. The mountain range rises steeply above the coast and at the end of the walk, there may be time for a dip. Afterwards, take a ferry to Bol, a small harbour town on the island of Brac.
Day 4 Brac
Begin the day with a climb to Vidova Gora, the highest point on the island at 780m. The views are incredible, including the lovely beach of Zlatni Rat far below and the karst landscape of the mainland. This afternoon, there’s a chance to relax on Zlatni Rat and maybe swim in the refreshing Adriatic Sea.
Day 5 Brac to Starigrad
Leave Brac behind and take the ferry to Split where you’ll have time to wander the old town. Then travel to Krka National Park for a walk to the Skradinski Buk waterfalls, a magnificent series of waterfalls dropping down in 17 dramatic steps. It’s a beautiful forested area and great for bird spotting. After a 2½ hour walk, continue to Starigrad, your base for three nights.
Day 6 Paklenica NP
Paklenica National Park is a hiker’s paradise and you’ll have two full days to explore the park. Today’s seven hour walk includes some of the quieter areas of the park passing the village of Ramici and finishing at the incredible Velika and Mala Paklenica canyons. Popular with rock climbers, these unusual karsts are a stirring sight.
Day 7 Paklenica NP
It’s well worth spending a second day in this wilderness area. Enjoy memorable views of Bojin Kuk from a lush green meadow and admire the limestone karsts that tower over the area. The walking is truly stunning and the park offers a real sense of peace. In the evening, return to your hotel at Starigrad.
Day 8 Starigrad
Your tour ends with a transfer to Zadar airport for your flight home.
