On this Dubrovnik walking holiday you will discover stunning sceneries and landscapes of Dubrovnik Archipelago in a best possible way – at slow pace. It is perfect for those who like to enjoy the great outdoors on foot, no matter the age. The daily walking routes will cover visits to Dubrovnik, Elaphiti Islands, Mt. Srd and Mljet Island National Park. They are not too long or too strenuous, and at almost every point you will be able to enjoy a refreshing swim break. We will stay in 3* family run guesthouses. The first two nights we will stay in the picturesque Zaton Bay. The rest of the week we’ll spend in a secluded village of Sipan Island.
The people of Dubrovnik claim their city to take the top spot on this list. This walled town founded in the 7th century, holds a spot on the list of UNESCO World Heritage sites. Apart from its gripping history, Dubrovnik is also interesting for the beautiful nature that surrounds it. Possibly the most beautiful part is Elaphiti Archipelago. This string of 13 green islands is covered by pine forests, has almost no traffic, and lots of sunshine and beaches. Together with Mljet Island National Park, they are not just places of incredible natural beauty. They are also an open air museums of history, art, architecture and folk traditions. Our experienced local guides will avoid overcrowded destinations ensuring you get the most authentic experience.
