Waypoint introductions and full write-ups

  1. 1. Velika and Mala Crljivica

    Behind the Makarska Riviera the land climbs abruptly into the grey limestone of Biokovo, and on the inland side of that range lies a high, stony plateau called the Dalmatian Zagora, a country of dry-stone walls, thin soil and scattered villages. Velika and Mala Crljivica, the Greater and Lesser Crljivica, sit in this landscape near the small town of Lovreć, about twenty-one kilometres from Omiš and a little further from Imotski, and the site is a field of old tombstones.

  2. 2. Historical Complex of Split with the Palac

    Few cities have grown inside a palace, but Split did exactly that. Around the year 300 the Roman emperor Diocletian, born in nearby Salona, built himself a vast fortified retirement residence on the shore of the Adriatic, a rectangle of walls, towers and gates. When Salona was sacked in the seventh century, refugees moved into the palace, and over the following centuries they turned its halls and corridors into streets and houses. The result is a living old town where medieval and Renaissance homes lean on Roman walls and washing hangs between ancient columns.

  3. 3. Historic City of Trogir

    Trogir is an island, though you barely notice it. The old town sits on a tiny islet between the mainland and the larger island of Čiovo, linked to both by short bridges, and inside its walls is one of the best preserved medieval towns on the Adriatic, a UNESCO site of narrow lanes, stone palaces and churches, crammed into an area you can walk across in five minutes.
