Activity Description
The tour starts in Metajna, at Ručica Beach – one of the most famous beaches on the island of Pag – where participants are greeted by the guide with the necessary equipment. The route begins toward Beriknica Beach, where the first stop is planned. Beriknica is unique for its unforgettable scene of three natural rock formations rising from the sea. After a break, the tour continues toward Slana Bay, surrounded by rocky cliffs that create an atmosphere of peace and privacy. As the beach approaches, the group will pass through the first sea via ferrata in Croatia. The ferrata is between 1 and 2 meters above sea level, where the water is about 1 meter deep. It is 100 meters long and equipped with iron steps and cables for safety. As you pass along the ferrata, a rush of adrenaline kicks in.
After completing the ferrata, the route continues along a ridge toward a scenic viewpoint where there is time to relax, take photos, and enjoy the stunning moonlike landscape. The return follows the same path toward the starting point, passing by the impressive climbing rock Stogaj.
By the end of the tour, you’ll feel fulfilled, knowing you’ve pushed the limits of hiking and experienced an unforgettable adventure.
