      Biokovo  is a giant mountain range near the sea. It’s 28 km long, 11 km wide and its highest peak is at 1762 m (St Jure). This mountain shows many contrasts of nature on a rather small area with its abundance of flora, including some endemic species, and rich fauna. The climb starts in Zagvozd, a village situated 13 km southwest from Imotski. There are a few possible paths, but the most interesting one is the path towards the highest peak of Biokovo.

    Imo adventure offers you a climb to the highest peak, St Jure (1762 m), starting from the village Milići, near Zagvozd. The village is situated at 440 m above the sea level, 3 km east from Zagvozd. After a 20-minute climb you will be entering a beech wood. The climb continues up to the Očijeski Wells (three stone wells) at 1100 m above the sea. It takes about two hours to get to the wells. After the wells, you will continue climbing on a steep bare ground, enter shortly into the woods and come out at Razvala (a slope right underneath the top at about 1400 m above the sea). The climb will continue up on the bare rocky ground of Biokovo until you reach the very top where you will find a St Jure church.  

      From the top you will have a beautiful view of the Imotsko Polje Valley and mountains of Bosnia and Herzegovina on one side, and of the sea and our islands on the other. The climb takes about 4 hours. After a short break, you will go back the same way. The whole trip (the climb and return) takes about 7 hours. It’s a rather demanding trip; it requires appropriate physical readiness.

 

            The price of the trip is 150 kn / person, a guide included.
