About Hiking Dubrovnik
Hiking Dubrovnik is a boutique guiding service run by Mare and Zeljka, a husband-and-wife team of certified mountain and climbing instructors who have been leading outdoor trips in the Dubrovnik region since 2001. Mare is a licensed sports climbing instructor, mountain guide, and boat skipper; Zeljka holds mountain guide and Nordic walking certifications. Together they offer private and small-group rock climbing lessons, coastal hikes, and moonlight walking adventures that venture beyond the usual Old Town sightseeing circuit.
The rock climbing sessions take place on a limestone crag roughly 15 minutes' drive from central Dubrovnik, with sport routes graded from 4b to 7a — suitable for first-timers through to experienced sport climbers. All harnesses, ropes, helmets, and shoes are provided. Hiking options include half-day coastal trail walks along the cliffs south of the city, as well as longer treks through the Konavle Valley and up Mount Srd. The moonlight hike, a guided walk under the stars with headlamps, is a unique after-dark experience that few other Dubrovnik operators offer.
What makes Hiking Dubrovnik stand out is the depth of local knowledge — Mare and Zeljka have spent decades exploring every trail, crag, and goat path in the area. The company operates year-round, with winter and shoulder-season dates available when most water-based operators have shut down.
