Vidova Gora

The highest peak in the Adriatic – what an amazing view!!! On a clear day, you can see as far away as Italy. It has a shape of an elongated karst ridge stretching along the southern coast of Brač. The sides of this ridge are entirely different. The southern face descends steeply, with cliffs sloping into the sea towards the town of Bol. The northern face is a karst highland mild slope of some ten kilometers of width. This highland is for the most part covered with scarce shrubland and Mediterranean macchia and the area of Kneževravni under Vidova Gora is populated with black pinewood. This vast highland covers more than half of the island, it is entirely deserted and uninhabited, and all larger settlements, except for Nerežišće, are located on the coast. Globally, Brač is known for its white marble excavated and processed on several locations on the island.
