Day 1: Arrive in Hvar

Welcome to Hvar, Croatia!

Hvar, a Croatian island in the Adriatic Sea, is best known as a summer resort. The island also features beaches such as Dubovica and inland lavender fields, as well as other secluded beaches and coves.

The city of Hvar gained glory and power during the Middle Ages as a notable port within the Venetian naval empire. Today, it is one of the most popular destinations on the Dalmatian Riviera. Often described as something out of a fairy tale, it is renowned for its unique fusion of luxurious Mediterranean nature, rich cultural and historical heritage, Venetian architecture, and mild climate. 
 
Spend your night at the hotel Villa Nora in Hvar's town center.

After breakfast, meet with your guide in the lobby for a twenty-minute transfer that brings you to your starting point, the village of Velo Grablje, which is approximately 14 kilometers away. The road that leads to the starting point will present you with amazing views of the surrounding islands.

Start your walk from Velo Grablje towards Malo Grablje, following the old trail, which in medieval times served as the main road connecting Hvar with Stari Grad on the north side of the island. The entire trail is downhill. Enjoy your lunch at a small local tavern in Malo Grablje.

Continue your hike through villages, where the beauties of traditional architecture and ways of living can be seen. Learn about medical herbs, traditions, challenges of island life, and much more.

Beyond expectations! Then again we weren't sure what to expect. Lovely stay at the lodge, met other like-minded travelers (many had their trips planned by Adventure Life) and the owner was a gracious hostess. It felt like you were one happy family, visiting with a favorite aunt.
