Makarska -- beautiful city under Biokovo mountain, Croatia
Makarska is a city in the center of Dalmatia with clear sea and many beautiful pebble beaches. Enjoy the sun and sea during the day and party in beach bars after the sunset. Relax by walking on the long promenade under the pine trees.

Makarska Riviera, Croatia Biokovo
The beauty of Biokovo has always attracted explorers and visitors and you are likely to be thrilled too. What is the best way to get to know it. There are over thirty marked trails leading up the mountain on the seaward side and eight on the landward side. On your way up, you will pass ancient villages on the foothills of the magnificent rocky mountain: Gornja Brela, Topici, Bast, Veliko Brdo, Makar, Kotisina, Gornji Tucepi, Gornja Podgora and Gornje Igrane on the seaward side, and Kozica, Rascane, Zupa, Biokovsko Selo, Rastovac, Zagvozd and Zadvarje on the other side of the mountain. A main hiking trail transverses the mountain - the Biokovo Mountain Trail with its twenty control points. However, one should not forget that Biokovo deserves full respect and therefore should be well-prepared for the ascent. ImageThe weather conditions can change in a moment, no surface water is to be found and any deviation from the marked trail entails some risk. Hiking boots, backpack, spare clothing, raincoat, drinking water, some chocolate and a good map of the Park are the items you will surely need. Climbing the steepest ascent in Croatian mountains at dawn, you will be surprised to learn that the people of Biokovo once used the same trails to carry hay and potatoes or drive their livestock to pasture. Biokovo is the mountain that one can visit either by car or bicycle as well as on foot from various parts of Adriatic coast and Makarska Riviera.

Driving Up Biokovo, Croatia's highest road near Makarska
Driving Up Biokovo, Croatia's highest road near Makarska. The views from Biokovo are spectacular – on the clear day one can see all Dalmatian islands as well as large part of Dalmatian coast to the south, and to the north, towns of Vrgorac and Imotski and their surrounding villages. Sometimes, when it’s very clear, one can see a peak of Monte Gargano in Italy too.
The coastal town of Makarska, that lies on the very south edge of Biokovo is seen from Biokovo as a amazing bay with tiny little houses placed in the rows around it. The nature park Biokovo dominating above Makarska Riviera, is the good destination for botanists as well as walkers and cyclist.

Wer die Makarska-Riviera besucht, sollte einen Ausflug ins Biokovo- Gebirge unternehmen. Die bequemste Art, auf das Hochplateau zu gelangen, ist ein Mietauto mit Chauffeur. Stefan, ein ortskundiger Fahrer, wird uns dabei gute Dienste erweisen. Nach anfangs gut ausgebauten Straßen verengt sich der Fahrweg und das ganze Unternehmen entwickelt sich zum kleinen Abenteuer. Planken, die vor einem Absturz schützen, sind nur wenige vorhanden. Auf dem Hochplateau wandern wir zu den steil abfallenden Felswänden an der Adria-Küste. Die Aussicht aus 1000 Meter Höhe auf Makarska und die vorgelagerten Inseln Brac und Hvar ist fantastisch. Nächstes Ziel unseres Ausflugs ist der 1762 Meter hohe Sveti Jure. Mit dem Auto kann man bis dicht unter den Gipfel fahren. Der Fahrweg windet sich in atemberaubenden und kaum abgesicherten Serpentinen steil bergauf. Auf dem Gipfel steht ein Sendemast des kroatischen Rundfunks. Der Panorama-Blick über das Biokovo-Massiv ist beeindruckend. Auf dem Gipfelplateau lernen wir zwei mutige Männer aus Slowenien kennen, die mit dem Fahrrad den Sveti Jure bezwungen haben. Was für ein Glücksgefühl muss das für diese Extremsportler sein!

Sv. Jure (1762 m) is highest peak on Biokovo mountain and second one in Croatia. When I go on hiking on Biokovo mountain with my guests, I often say: Welcome to my office. And, of course: Less talking - More walking!
Scenes from Paradise: Mountain experience: Biokovo | Makarska Riviera | Croatia
Biokovo is the second-highest mountain range in Croatia, located along the Dalmatian coast of the Adriatic Sea. The flora and fauna of this mountain is special. Biokovo is ideal for all sports disciplines, such as cycling, hiking, triathlon, or simply recreational walking and enjoying the views. This is a serious mountain that enchants with its beauty, but could be dangerous for inexperienced and unprepared explorers.

Biokovo Snow Run
Biokovo is the largest and the highest mountain in Dalmatia with two prominent peaks: St. Jure is higher with a huge TV tower construction, while St. Elijah is more modest and to many far prettier. Both peaks have a steep direct approach between high limestone walls from the seaside.
You can reach St. Jure by driving up the narrow road that was built for servicing the TV tower. In winter months the upper part of this road is snowbound so park where you can and proceed on foot.
This route connects St. Jure to St. Elijah peak with no significant elevation gain but through some quite rough rocky terrain.
Biokovo is large enough to attract harsh conditions with severe winds, heavy snows and extremely low temperatures in otherwise mild and sunny Mediterranean winters. Aim for sunny days after snowfalls and you'll be rewarded with some exciting icy scenery with the glittering Adriatic sea in the background. Rather postpone your visit for a few days if adverse weather is in the forecast. You definitely don't want to race storms in this mountain.
Biokovo je najveća i najviša planina u Dalmaciji sa dva izdvojena vrha. Sv. Jure je viši, s velikim TV tornjem na vrhu, dok je Sv. Ilija skromniji ali po mnogima ljepši. Oba vrha imaju direktan pristup pl. stazom među strmim liticama s morske strane. Na Sv. Juru se može doći i uskom cestom koja je izgrađena za servisiranje TV tornja. Zimi je gornji dio ceste prekriven snijegom pa je najbolje parkirati negdje putem i nastaviti pješke.
Ova staza povezuje Sv. Juru i Sv. Iliju bez velike visinske razlike ali kroz doista zahtjevan teren.
Biokovo je dovoljno veliko da stvori oštre vremenske uvijete, puno snijega, jake vjetrove i ekstremno niske temperature usred blage mediteranske klime. Rađe odgodite uspon ako se prognoza pogoršava. Na ovoj planini se ne želite utrkivati s nevremenom.
Running around St. Jure peak (1762m) above Makarska. As the snow melted we became slower. This mountain is huge!
BIOKOVO - Trčimo oko Sv. Jure (1762m) i prema Sv. Iliji. Najdalje smo stigli do iznad Basta jer se snijeg topio pa smo postajali spori sa sve većim pauzama, a trebalo se i vratiti do auta. Biokovo je ogromno :)
A video of an explorer and his husky traversing the frozen lakes and waterfalls of Plitvice National Park went viral last week. The adventurer Ante Tonči Fabris has produced another video, this time scaling the magnificent Biokovo, the largest and highest mountain in Dalmatia, at 1762m above sea-level. Just take a look at these incredible snow-tipped peaks and glorious blue sky.
TimeOut Croatia
Nakon hit videa s Plitvičkih jezera, Miška pozira i u novom videu s Biokova
Video Ante Tonča Fabrisa, na kojem se vidi netaknuta snježna idila Plitvičkih jezera, u nepuna je 2 tjedna skupio preko 220.000 pregleda na YouTubeu.
Ante je nastavio snježne avanture sa svojom Miškom, sibirskim haskijem, prvo na Učki, a potom iu na Biokovu.
Sunčan zimski dan proteklog vikenda ovaj je avanturist iskoristio za snimiti zanimljive prizore s naše najviše obalne planine. Tako se u video može vidjeti odašiljač na Svetom Juri, istoimena crkvica, hodanje po grebenima, pogled na obalu i otoke...
