Veliko Brdo

Veliko Brdo is a residential settlement near Makarska situated on an elevated hilltop in the Split-Dalmatia region. The village sits at about 307 meters above sea level and contains modern homes scattered across the sloping terrain.

The settlement developed as a modern residential area and has gradually grown in recent decades. Population numbers have increased over the past years, reflecting growing interest in the location.

The name Veliko Brdo means "Big Hill" in Croatian, reflecting how locals understand their hilltop location. Residents value the quiet setting and the way the village maintains a rural character despite being near the coastal city.

The settlement sits on a hillside, so walking involves some elevation change but the roads are well maintained. Visitors should arrive by car or local transport since public transit connections are limited.

Although small and compact, the elevated location offers views across to the Adriatic Sea and the surrounding coastal landscape. These vistas are particularly striking given that the village lies only a few kilometers from the shoreline.
