Blaca Monastery

Hiking Experience

Step into the remarkable history and landscapes of Brač on a privately guided hiking experience that combines nature, culture and local gastronomy.

Designed for travellers who enjoy discovering extraordinary places on foot, this journey reveals some of the island’s most spectacular natural and cultural treasures.

The highlight of the day is the hike to the secluded Blaca Monastery, dramatically nestled within a remote canyon. Following scenic Mediterranean trails through protected landscapes, you’ll reach one of Croatia’s most fascinating cultural monuments, where a guided visit brings to life the inspiring story of the priests, scholars and visionaries who transformed this isolated valley into a centre of science, education and innovation.

After the hike, continue to Vidova Gora, the highest peak of all Adriatic islands, where breathtaking panoramic views stretch across Brač, Hvar, Vis and the famous Zlatni Rat beach far below. It is the perfect place to pause, take in the scenery and appreciate the island’s remarkable diversity.

The experience concludes a visit to the Olive Oil Museum, where you’ll discover Brač’s centuries-old olive-growing tradition before enjoying a tasting of award-winning extra virgin olive oils and a light marenda featuring local cheeses, prosciutto and other regional specialties.

Every experience is privately guided and can be tailored to your interests and walking pace, creating a memorable day that balances active exploration, stunning scenery, fascinating history and authentic island flavours.
