Although most people think of beaches, islands and the pristine Adriatic at the mention of Dalmatia, this is actually only part of the story.
Away from the coast is one of the most intriguing and lesser known European regions - Zagora or, as is well known, the hinterland of Dalmatia.
UNESCO World Heritage, hundreds of years of tradition, adrenaline tourism that can be measured anywhere in Europe, natural beauty, unique indigenous wines and gourmet delights, more than two millennia of history, and culture and tradition at every turn.
Discover the accommodation we offer you in the beautiful Dalmatian hinterland!
Only half an hour’s drive from the Adriatic coast will lead you to the inland of Dalmatia or to the Dalmatian hinterland. This area is still unexplored which means the nature is fairly untouched, but still maintained.
The Dalmatian hinterland is separated from the coast by the mountain range Kozjak – Mosor – Omiska Dinara – Biokovo – Rilic. Rich in history and cultural heritage and offering various attractions, Zagora has become the perfect tourist destination all year round.
A spacious hinterland that leaves a person breathless
If you head to its peaks, you will be delighted by the spectacular view of the picturesque hills and mountains, as well as the islands and the sea that surrounds them.
If you do not want to climb the peaks, the foot of the mountain hides attractive localities and natural landscapes where relaxation is guaranteed.
Have you ever wondered what it would feel like to walk behind the scenes of the popular Game of Thrones series? Experience the enchanting landscape of Žrnovnica, the greenery of the Biokovo Nature Park or climb one of the most beautiful fortresses in Croatia, the Klis Fortress, which is one of the main places of this television spectacle that deservedly launched Central Dalmatia among the world's most beautiful destinations.
Nature beauties do not stop here but stretch along national parks and nature parks with fairytale waterfalls and incredibly green lakes in which you can go for a swim. Sail further through the untouched emerald canyon of the river Cetina surrounded by rich protected nature that preserved important historical and archeological sites, as well as many endemic plants and rare animal species. Furthermore, reach the picturesque spring by a kayak if you feel adventurous enough or make unforgettable memories by riding on the most attractive Croatian zipline over the Cetina canyon.

Dalmatian culture and local population
This area is full of culture. Visit Neolithic caves, Roman remains of significant historical fortifications throughout the hinterland, tombstones, well-preserved churches and stone towns. Look for 600-year-old wooden but functional mills where life has been roughly the same since the 15th century.
You will experience the local world best by getting to know the traditional customs that have been nurtured for generations and that have been recognized and protected by UNESCO. It is about klapa singing, a traditional and very unique dance called "Nijemo kolo", which is performed without music, and Ojkanju, which is the oldest type of singing in Croatia. In Sinj you will meet the last European knights who have been leading the Sinj Alka for 300 years.
The fertile soil of the Dalmatian hinterland is suitable for viticulture and olive growing, so here you will be greeted by a glass of the best wines of indigenous varieties Pinot, Trnjak or Plavac Mali, while you will spice up traditional specialties with high-quality golden oil of gently picked olives.
You will never make a bad choice if you get a recommendation from the locals.
