Cetina River is with its 102 km one of the longest and most beautiful Dalmatian rivers. Furthermore, it is interesting from cultural and historical perspective because of its richness in archaeological sites – from the time of Roman legionnaires and Illyrians, all the way to medieval battles. These data are all indicative of the river’s importance for the life of local population.
Nowadays the river with its surroundings is increasingly linked to the development of active vacation or adventure tourism. From adventure sports, the most represented are rafting, canyoning, canoeing, free climbing and trekking, and apart from these, bicycling and horse riding. The Cetina River is known for being a fliming location: in the field from “tisne stine” (narrow cliffs) to Radman’s mills, 10 movies about Winnetou (a character from the books of Karl May) were recorded. Near the mouth of the river there is a shrine of St. Leopold Mandić which is also the starting point of the eponymous thematic paths offering a breathtaking view of the stone gates of the river Cetina. At the estuary of Cetina stands the most famous pirate town in the Mediterranean – Omiš.
Treat yourself to a relaxing vacation on the most beautiful Dalmatian river. Breathe in fresh river air, free your mind from stress and activate your body. Adventure on the Cetina River is an unforgettable, inspiring and refreshing experience. Be prepared for the adventure of your life, come and enjoy rafting, canyoning, trekking and all other activities in a wonderful canyon of the Cetina River.
