Jeep Safari Split from Split and from Trogir

Jeep Safari

Our jeep safari begins with gathering in the morning at 9:00 am on the Split waterfront. We continue along the main road through Solin and climb up the mountain Kozjak.

Route actually starts in the east in village Ninčevići with good and wide road that goes under the stone ridge some 15-20 m from the top and continues on unpaved paths. As we drive along the road, you will see the Italian bunkers, where the Italians had fortified positions on the former border of the NDH and Italy, which allowed them monitoring of the roads leading through Kozjak and Blace towards Zagora.

We continue to the eastern tip of Kozjak where is the church of St. Jure belonging to the Solin parish. This top is our first short stop – viewpoint from which you have panoramic view on city Split and you can take great pictures.

Next, we descend to the town of Blace where will make shortstop in front of the “dogs” pit. Driving further, we pass Blace and proceed to other viewpoint located on the cliff. There is the church of St. Luke. From the cliffs, there is a fantastic view from one side on city Split, the islands and the surrounding area, while the other side shows the cruelty of the mountains of the Dalmatian hinterland, Dinara, Svilaja and Kamešnica.

Then we continue to the village Vučevica that reflects the hard life of farmers through various vineyards, wells and stone houses. There is also important shrine of St. Ante.

Shortly we continue our jeep safari and reach the Eco-ethno village Škopljanci where we dine and taste the local specialties – traditional dishes. After lunch we set out to visit the ethnographic museum with the theme of bulls, musical instruments and folk costumes, and the whole village is in the sign of bulls because of the competition Bikijada …

Then we continue to the place Križni put dedicated to the fallen defenders in the homeland war. While driving, you will see a stone church of Sv. George built on the walls of prehistoric ruins while on the other hand; we have a view at Malacka.

Our next stop is at the beautiful church of St. Lovre, situated on the slopes of Kozjak where you can enjoy spectacular views of the Bay of Kastela, Split, Trogir and the islands of Brac, Hvar, Solta.

The return is via Kastel Sućurac, ancient city of Salona to the place where we started our adventure.
