Discover the magic of southern Dalmatia at your own pace on this self guided walking holiday that blends history, culture and coastal beauty. Begin in the UNESCO-listed city of Dubrovnik, where medieval stone walls wrap around terracotta rooftops and the sparkling Adriatic Sea. From here, your journey unfolds on foot—through the traditional Konavle region, known for its vineyards, olive groves and timeless rural charm. Swap the mainland for island life, peaceful hideaways where walking trails wind between quiet coves, pine forests and sleepy villages or are home to a tranquil national park with saltwater lakes and shaded paths ideal for exploring on foot. Sample locally made wines, goat's cheese and olive oil, and unwind in hand-picked guesthouses that reflect the region’s warm hospitality.
