Walking Paths of Župa dubrovačka
Walking Paths of Župa Dubrovačka is a network of walking paths that extend through the entire municipality of Župa Dubrovačka in a length of 50 km / 31 miles. They are arranged thematically and each has its own specificity. Choose for yourself the one you find most attractive.
SEA TO SUMMIT LOOP
This route is the longest of the 4 routes and represents the biggest challenge for the walker. Given that the routes are designed to be covered in one day, this trail will be a strong bite for the average adventurer. The trail starts along the sea, as its name suggests, and continues through the municipality, providing an experience of getting to know the entire region, its culture and its people. The trail climbs to Malaštica, a mountain above the villages of Župa Dubrovnik municipality, and ends at the very border with Bosnia and Herzegovina. This point is marked with three blue marks, suggesting that it should not be continued. The route is circular, so unfortunately it returns on the other side, and ends at the same point from where you started. This route shares parts with the green route. The trail is 19 km / 12 miles long with 745 m / 2444 ft above sea level.
SENIOR CITIZEN WALK
The Senior Citizen Walk is a pedestrian path intended for walkers who want to avoid the most demanding areas of the municipality and move along a mostly flat path and explore the municipality from the sea to the villages inland. The trail is 15 km / 9 miles long and 480 m/1556 ft above sea level.
SEA TO SUMMIT SHORTEST ROUTE
This trail is a literal copy of its name. The goal of the trail is to bring the walker from the blue sea to the highest point of the municipality in the shortest possible time and by the shortest route. This means that it is also demanding with a lot of altitude. At the very end of the trail, there are three signs that suggest that it is the end of the trail, right on the border with Bosnia and Herzegovina. The trail is almost 8 km / 5 miles long with a return to the sea and has 474 m/1555.12 ft of altitude to overcome.
CONNECTING ROUTE
This trail is designed to connect already existing trails outside the municipality of Župa Dubrovnik. On the western side, the Connecting route connects to the Croatian Long Distance Trail, which leads to Srđ above Dubrovnik and further, and on the eastern side, it connects to the HEART of Konavle - a trail that wanders through the Konavle wilderness. Both of these paths, just like this one, were conceived by the same author. The trail is 14 km / 8.6 miles long with 525 m / 1722 ft of altitude to overcome.
