ABOUT MAKARSKA

The town of Makarska sits at the center of this gorgeous strip, overlooking the magnificent Hvar and Brač islands.
Known as the homeland of summer, Makarska riviera has been a tourist hot spot since the late 19th century. One look at its pristine turquoise sea, gorgeous beaches, wonderfully lush countryside, and the high peaks of Biokovo mountain in the north tell the story of a destination second to none, whether you are visiting during the summer months or at any other time of the year.
Enjoy your time here exploring the Riviera and the archipelago of Central Dalmatia, tasting the local delicacies, and bathing in the sun, cooled by the fresh, pine-scented breeze.

ABOUT SKYWALK BIOKOVO

Skywalk Biokovo is located at the Ravna Vlaška area, at an elevation ot 1228 metres, right next to the info centar at the 13th kilometre ot the Biokovo road. At the viewpoint, there is also a geological column providing a 3D overview of the cross-section of the rock that forms Mt. Biokovo, from this formation until today, with a geological time chart and description of the types of rock and their ages.
The Skywalk is reached from the Biokovo road that starts at the entrance into Biokovo Nature Park, about 6 km east of Makarska, and leads to the highest peak, Sv. Jure (St. George) at an elevation of 1762 metres, making it Croatia’s highest paved road.
Fantastic views of the sea and islands
The viewpoint plateau is 23 x 3 metres in size, offering a stunning view over the sea and islands. On sunny, windy days, it is possible to see all the way to Italy. A walk along the clear glass skywalk, over the edge of the cliff, provides a bird’s eye view of the Mt. Biokovo rocks edge of the cliffs.
Due to the unfavourable geomechanical properties of the soil, the proximity to fault lines and earthquake zones, and the strong winds that blow here, a pre-stressed concrete construction was designed for the main support system, upon which the steel and glass structure sits. The floor of the Skywalk is made entirely of glass.
