El Classico Mosor Hike

“A mother had two sons, one was a regular guy and the other a mountaineer“– old saying from Split

Mosor is the place of mythical importance for Split and its area as well as one of its guardians and in most cases first step in more serious mountaineering. In the past it nurtured and hid shepherds and farmers, renegades and partisans while now is attended by nature lovers and people wanting to experience a real mountain feeling with as many faces as the seasons that in winter months paint its ridges white and color vividly its meadows in spring.

Being a part of Dinaric Alps, Mosor is geologically composed of limestone and it stretches northwest – southeast, terrain is rocky but quite abundant in well maintained trails connecting most of its parts in all directions, therefore handy to explore it whether you are after leisure hikes or more adventurous ones bringing you to some of its peaks towering up to 1339 meters above sea level.

Depending on which hike level you chose the perception changes but views from the high up won’t let you down, especially those to the inland or the middle Dalmatian islands.

Along the way you will see valleys, passes, ridges, little churches, abandoned stone houses and terraces once used for agriculture and cattle, mountain huts and shelters and so on. Your guide will be there with you all the way to interpret the things you seeand always ready to give useful hiking tips.
