Hike the very best mountain trails in Croatia and explore Zagreb, Plitvice Lakes, Split and Zadar on this excellent walking holiday.
Croatia’s Dalmatian Coast is home to an incredible coastline, dramatic national parks, towering peaks, medieval towns, mount-watering food, cascading waterfalls and wonderful hospitality. This lovely walking holiday to Croatia includes some of Europe’s most spectacular trails, including a part of the spectacular Via Dinarica long-distance footpath which snakes through the Balkans. From the Croatian capital of Zagreb, with its bustling market, colourful old centre and stunning cathedral, we head first to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Plitvice Lakes. Here we’ll discover an abundance of beautiful cascading waterfalls and stunning lakes. The undiscovered Velebit Mountains and breath-taking Paklenica National Park offer jaw-dropping scenery, off the beaten track trails and a visit to a welcoming homestay. Wherever we go on this holiday, we’ll be surrounded by dramatic views of the coast and the stunning archipelago of offshore islands. In the charming coastal towns of Zadar and Split we can enjoy Croatia’s famed café culture, amazing restaurants, stunning promenades and beautiful medieval architecture. This provides the perfect contrast to our adventure in the dramatic mountains.
