Hvar Rainbow Hike

Saint Nicolas peak towers 625 meters above water and the water is all around just like great views to the mainland and other islands spreading out on the horizon that on a really clear day extends all the way to Italy right across.

Firstly you get transfer in all-terrain vehicle from Hvar taking the island’s less traveled roads as the inland reveals in form of thousands of kilometers of dry-stone walls, traces of nearly forgotten past, overgrown and cultivated fields…

You start walking very close to the top so when you get there everything is immediately displayed and apart from panoramas you can see the trail winding down but it’s only along the way that its secrets and details are truly discovered. Steep vineyards on the south slopes representing an attraction itself are a home to some of the best red wines in Croatia while the cave where a religious order had settled centuries ago is likely to surprise you with its setting and perfect shade. As you climb down closer to one of the bluest sea ever you will come across the little village of Sveta Nedjelja with an option to go for a swim as the ultimate refreshment.

After a short break your transfer will pick you up and take you by a very exposed gravel road high above the water and under stunning cliffs but before returning to Hvar town you will stop in a local tavern for lunch.

Other option is that just before reaching the coast you head west on the trail leading towards Dubovica cove and pass one of the nicest stretches of the island with huge cliffs on one and the ocean on the other side. Upon reaching the road above Dubovica there is transfer to get you to a great spot for lunch and then back to Hvar.
