Walking the Dalmatian Coast

Discover the treasures of the Dalmatian Coast on foot as you ramble from topaz shores and ancient port towns to snaking river gorges and fortress-topped peaks

Croatia’s coveted Dalmatian Coast is a walker’s paradise, blessed with craggy clifftop paths that showcase views over the shimmering Adriatic Sea. The base for this group walking tour is the harbour town of Makarska, where you can wander along a palm-fringed promenade while boats bob in the marina and the hulking mounds of the Biokovo Mountains loom overhead. Laze on pebbly beaches perfect for bathing in mirror-clear waters and sip coffee in street-side cafés lined with red-roofed houses and bell-towered churches.

Taste the salt-laced air and savour the sun on your face during gentle daily walks that reveal dramatic Dalmatian scenery. Your group will explore flower-filled botanical gardens and conquer the 1,762-metre-high Sveti Jure Mountain, located in the wilds of Biokovo Nature Park. Medieval history awaits in the coastal town of Omiš, which is shadowed by the 15th-century Starigrad Fortress and lies along the banks of the Cetina River. Follow the river on foot as it carves its way through a limestone gorge, floating back by boat beneath soaring karsts.

There’s plenty of time to relax en route, with photo stops and lazy picnic lunches at panoramic beauty spots, as well as evening meals in rustic Croatian taverns where you can feast on fresh seafood chased by the region’s traditional fruit brandy, rakija. Relish an entirely free day to bask on the beach, sail to the far-flung islands of Brač and Hvar, or take a scenic trip up the coast to UNESCO-listed Split for Roman palaces, cathedrals and historic squares.
