There is a parking lot at the foot of the mountain. A well-developed path leads up to the castle. The castle is freely accessible and offers a great view.

Mountaineering

A very beautiful old ruin of a fortress on a mountain above Blagaj. Unfortunately there are only rudimentary walls left. There are some free parking spaces available below the fortress. To get to the fortress you have to climb steeply up the mountain for almost a kilometer on a footpath. The climb is worth it. First of all, the view from up here over the town of Blagaj and the surrounding area is excellent. Admission to the ruins is free 🤩🤩🤩
