An active weekend for outdoor enthusiasts can be spent along an interesting hiking trail with a symbolic name. "The Way of Life" which takes you to Omiš Dinar. The path of life - you have to admit that the name of the path tickles the imagination. This is a proposal that is definitely worth considering, because it is a circular hiking trail that offers fascinating landscapes and memorable views, and hikers will tell you that the Path of Life is a trail that you must walk.
The trail starts and ends in Pisk, a small tourist town on the Omiš Riviera, and since it is a circular trail, you can combine the ascent according to your wishes. The usual route is Gornji Fistonići - Pas - Privorac - Pisak. The trail offers a wonderful view of Dubce and Vruja, which is the domesticated name for the funnel-shaped land-sea area of Alinjača, Alinica and Dovanj hill from Omiš, and Pelegrin, Duril and Veliki kuk from the Makarska side.
This attractive location is bordered by the towns of Pisak, Slime, Brela Gornja and Brela, that is, the municipalities of Omis, Zadvar and Breljan. This is a mosaic area of natural gems, a phenomenon that is the subject of numerous myths and legends.
"Sea, sea..." they say that it was at the Dupci pass that the Croats shouted as they came to the Adriatic. In this place, the cliffs fall into the sea to a depth of over 100 meters, he says Croatian Mountaineering Association Mosor describing this track.
Uvala Vruja is a giant spring system in which a deep underwater sinkhole with a diameter of an incredible 60 meters stands out, from which a huge amount of water springs. This is the biggest wind in the Adriatic, and very windy in the entire Mediterranean. It is located directly below the Dupci pass (288 meters), which separates the Biokovo mountain (1762 meters) from the Dovnja massif (864 meters), which is part of Omiška Dinars.
Beautiful and sheltered pebbly beaches are located at the foot of the steep cliffs, which are easiest to access by sea, by boat from Brela or Piska, due to the extremely steep and inaccessible terrain that surrounds them. Vruja beach is one of the most beautiful on the Adriatic and is definitely something you should experience, so definitely put this location on your "bucket list".
Marker is a small tourist place on the far east of the Omiš Riviera, 18 kilometers from Omis and about forty kilometers from the Dalmatian metropolis Split. The highest peak of this attractive trail is the 642-meter-high peak of Šatarica, which offers a superb view of Vruja and the upper part of the Makarska Riviera.
- Šatarice is a peak with a repeater that can be seen above Vruja when you drive on the highway in the direction of Split. We started this ascent in Pisak (practically from the main road), climbed towards the Pas rest area and further towards the top of Šatarica to pass through the rock formations above Vruja at sunset. You must have admired this landscape at least once in your life, observing it from the highway, and the Path of Life takes you straight to its best parts, they state Andrea and Mario iz Life and Ventures u publish which caused numerous reactions on social networks and also got many people interested in the Path of Life.
The trail is medium-difficult and technically undemanding, but don't forget that it is a hiking trail and you definitely need basic hiking equipment, i.e. appropriate footwear and clothing. You should definitely study the weather conditions before departure because you don't want to walk if there is a gale blowing, which they say it does the bora gives birth in Senja and dies in Vruja. In summer, however, you have to count on high temperatures without shade, so the best time for the Path of Life is spring or autumn.
