768 Bol – Vidova gora – Bol 

The trail takes us from the centre of Bol towards the west, along the promenade next to the famous Zlatni rat (Golden horn) beach, along a slightly steep asphalt road, all the way to the village of Murvica, 5 km away. Behind Murvica begins a 5 km long macadam track that passes through vineyards, with minor ascents and descents, and, near the Smrčeva harbour cove, the macadam track climbs steeply as far as the turning for Vela Farska cove, where it turns into an asphalt road, followed by a climb of about 6 km to the Vela Visoka peak. At the Vela Visoka peak, we turn right to the east and follow the 4 km long macadam track to the asphalt road. After turning right (towards the south), there is a 3 km ascent through the pine forest to Vidova gora and the famous viewpoint. Vidova gora is the highest peak on the island of Brač, with an elevation of 778 m, and is also the highest peak of all the Croatian islands. For the descent, we stay on the asphalt road all the way to the place where we initially joined it (3 km). Here we turn right (to the east) on a macadam track about 5 km long that leads us past Duboki dolac and Trolokva to the asphalt road which, after 14 km (mostly downhill), will take us back to Bol.
