Biokovo Nature Park is beautiful and expansive. While it can be a while before you're allowed in (given that they let in only 25 cars per hour due to the narrow road from the entrance to the top), I'd say it's worth at least an hour or two wait. Better yet, if you want to avoid the crowds, go early in the morning, not on a weekend, and in the off season. (We went on a beaut Saturday in October, showed up at 11am and got to go in with the 12 o'clock group).
The drive up offers stunning views, as do the top and the skywalk (which is included in the 50 kn entry price per person, or 25 kn if you're on a bicycle). There are places along the way to stop and have a picnic (at picnic tables), there were a few photo-op pullouts, and there were outhouses at the skywalk (and in the parking lot before starting the drive up). There are also lots of little walking trails, and some old ruins.
All in all, we had a great day out, and we thought the 50 kn per person price was definitely fair.

Magnificent landscapes all along the route. This very narrow road is not dangerous, you have to drive slowly and take your time ... Sometimes it may be necessary to reverse but there are always places to put the car.
To do absolutely and preferably in the morning, there are only 25 cars per hour that go up

Actually it is overpriced for what it offers (OK, 50 kn is really not that much, but it is per person and not per a car, and you can just drive up to the hill and take a look around at the top for this price....currently the main viewpoint in the middle is under construction, there was no toilet etc.). However, the view is really spectacular so it is worth visiting. Driving up to the highest point is challenging but manageable, don't be afraid if you can drive well. I did not felt it dangerous at all.

I have been several times before at Mt Biokovo Nature Park, but this is my first visit after the Skywalk opened. It's well worth a visit, but too little is being done to make it more accessible for visitors. In summer, those with cars have to wait 3-4 hours or don't manage to get in at all. I was lucky to be on the motorbike. But, the road is in a very poor condition, full of potholes and with sand and gravel in the curves, so each day a few visitors with motorbikes and scooters fall, often with injuries

It is unexceptionable that a natural park can only be accessed by paying a toll, even to enter on foot. Even more incomprehensible is that all those vehicles of all types, sizes and environmental impacts (petrol, diesel, etc.) are allowed into a natural park. Kilometer-long queues of cars going up and down non-stop and at a walking pace, inhalations of exhaust fumes, noises and shouts, aspects that are anything but inclined to any principle of protection and safeguarding of nature.. Finally, the rudeness, the the staff's arrogance and rude way of responding make the visit even more unpleasant and irritating.
I recommend Conero, Circeo, Gaeta and many other locations located mainly in Italy.

Access is limited to 20 cars per hour and you have to buy the ticket on the web (€8 for one car and 2 people ). The access road is narrow but there are improvements regularly. Be careful because you must nevertheless be careful especially if you come across a large car.
Incredible panoramic view near the glass pontoon.

Fantastic day trip. New view point over the cliff was not completely finished when we were there, but soon to open. We went all the way to the top of the mountain (quite some way from the entrance), encountering cows and wild horses along the way. Road is paved all the way, but very narrow (one car can pass only), loads of bands and have to pull back at some points when approaching cars are on the road. Outstanding view from the top of the mountain! Can see Italian coast on clear days! Well worth visiting, but take off peak times to avoid congestion on the road.

It's not even remotely a natural park, it's just a scenic spot. Rows of cars with their engines running along the ascent and descent route, noise pollution and rudeness of the reception staff who, rather than welcoming, make you want to escape. I wonder what the point of paying entry is if none of those proceeds go towards safeguarding the place.

The Skywalk is an experience and the park is probably Unpacked. The view is great!Why two stars?
The main reason is the approach. As long as there is no oncoming traffic, everything is relaxed. Suddenly, if you are faced with a vehicle, on the right the slope and it is 100 meters back, the mood changes very quickly.
In my view, it is irresponsible not to make massive reference to these circumstances on the ground.
There are alternate points at a distance of 30-150 meters. However, this distance may also have to be covered backwards in Colone. Experienced and forward-looking drivers are required here.
This concerns the approach to the Skywalk. The road to the summit is narrowing again.
There is no control or traffic guidance by staff. The slots at the entrance are also not respected. Thus, oncoming traffic must be expected at all times.
So we could not enjoy the stay and drove down quite quickly. Much thus remained undiscovered.
The second reason is the staff. Unkindness seems to be the main recruitment criterion.
Apart from that, the presence of these ladies and gentlemen is completely pointless.
Don't expect any help.

In mid June the road was closed for repair work, except for Sundays. Unfortunately the only Sunday we were in the area, the road was still closed due to high winds (although tour vans were being allowed to go up - some animals are more equal than others!). I did not see any mention of this possibility when I was researching Biokovo Nature Park so it was a big disappointment. We had scheduled two nights/3 days in this area expressly for the purpose of driving up to Sv Jure and hiking around the trails there but were not able to. Beware!

Yes, we took a taxi to Makar and walked up to the Vosic peak from there. It took us about 4 hours up and two hours down on a rather strenuous but well marked paths. Amazing views! The children who were 9, 11, 11, and 14 all made it, but they are used to hiking.

Tenemos pensado que el dia de camino entre Dobrovnik i Split realizar un recorrido por el Nature Park Biokovo.
¿Cuánto tiempo lleva visitarlo, con algunas paradas para disfrutar de las vistas?
¿Se puede llegar en coche hasta sv. Jure?
Gracias

Hi! How long does it take to get to the top of the mountain (Sv. Jure) by foot/ by car?
In which car park does it recommended to leave the car before the narrow roads? Thanks :)
Written January 15, 2016
Nekünk autóval kisebb megállókkal kb 3/4 óra volt. Érdemes ahol csak lehet megállni, mert egyrészt mindenhol gyönyörű másrészt kell a pihenő a sofőrnek.
It took cca 45 min for us with car. It's worth to take stops, because it's beautiful everywhere, and the driver will need a rest.

I have heard of a geological trail In the. Biokovo national park .does anybody know about it ? Thanks
Written August 16, 2015
The geological path is located near the area marked on topographic maps as Vilovik, starting at the road leading from the entrance to Biokovo Natural Park towards the highest peak of Sv. Jure (St. George), about 1 km behind Lemišini doci.
EDUCATIVE GEOLOGICAL PATH BENEATH VILOVIK
"The path is short (20 min easy walk), marked with geological marks, and boards on each site, explaining in simple words the origin of limestone, rock that for the most part constitutes the mountain of Biokovo, and part of surface Karst phenomena - škrape and sink-holes -found all around Biokovo."
