Vidova gora, Mountain summit in Brač, Croatia
Vidova gora is the highest peak among all Adriatic islands and rises prominently from the landscape of Brač. The summit has an open terrain with views stretching across the sea and the surrounding islands.
Ancient inhabitants left traces on Vidova gora, including stone structures that show early settlement in the area. Over time, the mountain became increasingly important as a spiritual place for people living on the island.
A white stone cross stands at the summit, marking this place as spiritually important to local people. Pilgrims and hikers visit the peak to connect with the landscape and its religious meaning.
A marked hiking trail leads from Bol to the summit and takes around two hours to climb at a steady pace. The route is mostly exposed, so bring water and sun protection for a comfortable ascent.
The summit offers a view of Zlatni rat beach below, a long sandbank that juts into the sea in an unusual formation. This geological feature shifts shape over time due to water currents and shifting sediments.
