What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors consistently praise the breathtaking panoramic views from Sveti Jure Peak and the exhilarating, albeit challenging, drive to the summit. The Skywalk offers a unique thrill, though some find the road and park entry fees a bit steep. It's a highly recommended experience for its natural beauty and adventurous access.
"Beautiful place to visit. Such a great experience. A road to the top is narrow, so if you are with a car be ready to go a bit backwards when another car approaches. There are widenings on the road from time to time so don't worry. Be patient and in control of your vehicle. And you will be glad and happy when you reach the top!"

"One of the prettiest places I’ve seen.
Difficult road, not for beginners.
10 euro/person totally worth
Splendid glass bridge.
Not crowded in the morning."
Radu Simon
"Beautiful place with car road to the very top. Highest mountain of Biokovo mtn range. My wife was scared and cried in a car during uphill, because road is a bit scary lol. The views are pretty great. Parking is available (max around for ~10 cars), bio toilets available. There are small hiking route around the mountain top with views. Small old church located near the route. The actual mountain top area is isolated by fence and occupied by tower for tv/mobile or something.
Main thing - drive carefully, the road is very tricky, very narrow, few places to pass oncoming cars."
