Climb through Klis Fortress
Klis, Croatia

Klis Fortress occupies a steep position above the coastal plain, with gateways and successive lines of defence revealing how carefully the landscape was used. Moving through the stone passages gives the visit a physical sense of progression before the broad view across Split comes into focus. Its long military history is the principal reason to linger. Check the current combined-ticket arrangements, which can add an interpretation centre and other nearby visits, while leaving enough time for the fortress itself.
