From Omiš, a short transfer takes you to Cetina Canyon for eight zip lines spanning 2,100 meters. You’ll get equipment, a practice run, and English-language instruction, then cross high above the river with guides at each launch and landing. Marko and Misha are among the guides associated with the team. Allow up to three hours, including uphill walks.

“Unforgettable Zipline Adventure in Omiš! This zipline experience was truly unforgettable! Before the first ride, there was definitely a bit of fear, but that quickly turned into pure excitement and eagerness to go on the next one. It was maximum fun, especially being able to ride in tandem, which allowed us to record some great selfie videos. The final rides over the Cetina River were an amazing finale to a fantastic day. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for an adrenaline rush and breathtaking views!”

2.Split 3-Hour Guided Bike Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 117 reviews · from $59

Start near Split’s harbor, then ride through Diocletian’s Palace, up Marjan Hill and past Sustipan’s sea cliffs. The three-hour route pairs old-town streets with pine forest, a 15th-century chapel and island views. Guides including Eva, Darla and Duje lead in English. Bikes and helmets are included; ask about an electric bike if you want help on the hills.

“Eva, the tour guide was lovely, the tour was informative and covered lots of the city. The national forest was beautiful, but challenging in parts. The bikes were brand new, if you enjoy cycling this tour should be on your list.”

3.3-Hour Via-Ferrata Adventure in Fortica Fortress

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 101 reviews · 3 hours · from $41

Follow the wired ridge above Omiš with a helmet, harness and via ferrata set. Your host explains the equipment and route before you set off, usually on your own. The climb leads toward Fortica Fortress, where entry costs €4, followed by a steep, rocky walk back down.

“The activity was excellent. Although classed as 'easy' which I felt was under selling how difficult some parts are due to the height and wind. The vast majority you are connected on. But there are some parts you are not, especially as you climb towards the fortress. I would recommend this but not if you don't like heights and personally I wouldn't take children, but there were some behind us who safely made it without trouble. Ivan was very helpful at the start.”
