The Neretva Valley - Explore Untouched Nature and Rich History

Untouched nature, exciting gastronomy, endless green fields of fruits, and many canals and backwaters make The Valley of Neretva unique. 

One of the wealthiest archaeological sights in the valley is Narona, today the town Vid, because of its geographical position. One of the best ways to explore The Valley of Neretva would be by sailing. There are many hidden backwaters and streams and endless fields of citrus fruits growing everywhere. 

Vid - A Place of Countless Remains of the Imperial Families

Vid is one of the places where you can find countless remains of Augustus' temple and many statues of the imperial family. In the 4th century BC, the ancient Greeks started colonizing the Adriatic coast and islands. The position of Narona had benefits, so they decided to settle there. The people of Narona settled in the hinterland, making their position perfect for trading and selling weapons, pottery, clothing, and jewelry. It didn't take long until the Romans became aware of the advantages of the Narona and took it for their own. Emperor Augustus built a residence there, which left this place ready to fill the archaeological museum with permanent exhibitions of artifacts, statues, and other findings. You can participate in the 'Roman Night of Narona' festival in Vid.

The Valley of Neretva Hiking Trail

There is so much to explore in Dubrovnik-Neretva county; if you enjoy hiking or cycling, this will be a dream come true. Some of the most popular trails are Dubrovnik-Srđ, Dubrovnik city walls, Fort Royal, Lovrijenac Fortress, and Walls of Ston. Neretva has so much to see, but the wider area, including Dubrovnik, hides so much history and natural beauty it would be a shame to miss it. Cycling is an excellent option for searching the site faster but from the same perspective. Cycling trails on Neretva will lead you through mesmerizing fields of growing fruits, little streams stretching around the arable land, and a view worth the trip. 

The Valley of Neretva Croatia Adventures 

The Valley of Neretva has a lot of places for exciting adventures, like kayaking on the river, rafting, or kiteboarding. However, sailing through this place is also possible but be careful while getting close with a yacht because of the sandy and shallow sea bottom. It's best to head on this trip with small boats as it will give you access to many stops with great restaurants and tourist attractions. Sailing will also ensure maximum exploration while enjoying the luxury and comfort of your boat. If you want someone else to take the helm, booking a guided trip and enjoying yourself on the ship without thinking about where you need to go next is possible. Neretva is just one of the many unique places in Croatia where you can explore high-end tourism in its best light. Make sure to book your trip early!
