Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

From Vidikovac Lozica, you will enjoy stunning views of the new part of Dubrovnik, the Elafiti Islands, and the Bay of Dubrovnik.

Stop 2

The Ombla River, the shortest river in Europe, is a source of fresh water. Historically, it supplied Dubrovnik with fresh water through an impressive water system built by Onofrio della Cava in the 15th century. Onofrio, a renowned Neapolitan engineer, constructed a 12-kilometer aqueduct in 1438, which brought water from the Ombla River to Dubrovnik's public fountains, including the famous Onofrio's Fountain, ensuring a reliable and clean water supply for the city.

Stop 3

Bosanka Viewpoint, located on Mount Srđ above Dubrovnik, offers breathtaking panoramic views of the historic city, the Adriatic Sea, and the surrounding islands. This vantage point provides an unobstructed look at Dubrovnik's iconic red-tiled rooftops, the ancient city walls, and the picturesque coastline. On clear days, you can also see the distant Elafiti Islands. Bosanka Viewpoint is a popular spot for visitors seeking to capture the beauty of Dubrovnik from above and enjoy a peaceful escape from the bustling city below.

Stop 4

Watching the sunset from Dubrovnik Vidikovac is a truly mesmerizing experience. Situated on the slopes of Mount Srđ, this viewpoint provides an unparalleled panorama of the city and the Adriatic Sea. As the sun sets, the sky transforms into a canvas of vibrant colors, ranging from warm oranges and pinks to deep purples and blues. The golden light bathes the ancient city walls and the terracotta rooftops of Dubrovnik, creating a magical and serene atmosphere. The shimmering sea reflects the changing hues of the sky, and the distant Elafiti Islands add to the picturesque scene. This breathtaking view makes Dubrovnik Vidikovac a popular spot for both locals and tourists to witness one of the most beautiful sunsets in the region.
