Kamensko, Trilj, Mountain settlement in Split-Dalmatia County, Croatia.
Kamensko is a mountain settlement in Split-Dalmatia County located northeast of Split at roughly 774 meters elevation. The village spreads across a highland area with stone houses and traditional Dalmatian architecture typical of the inland regions.
The area was long inhabited by shepherds before coming under Roman rule, when Emperor Augustus had a road built through the region. This ancient route influenced trade and settlement patterns in the highlands for centuries to come.
The Church of Saint Peter dominates the village center with its bell tower integrated into the main facade, serving as the spiritual focal point for residents.
The settlement is accessible year-round, though visitors should expect cooler temperatures and wind on the high plateau. Walking paths connect the houses and offer easy exploration of the village layout and surrounding hillside.
The village became home to a wind farm installation in 2013, bringing renewable energy technology to this traditional highland area. This project demonstrates how rural mountain communities adapt to modern energy solutions.
