It’s a hot destination right now for cruise ships and Instagram influencers.
Highest priority for me was walking the famed walls. 2kms. I walked it twice in sequence.
Cost is 35 EU !?
For a HIKE !!
So — like almost every tourist — I bought the 35EU Dubrovnik Pass which pays for the wall, the castle, Rector’s Palace, and several more interesting attractions.
You also get a 24 hour bus ticket which costs about 5 EU by itself. … Of course there’s no room on the buses. 😀
Unfairly, the feral cats do not have to pay. 😀
I walked the circuit twice in series in the morning. And returned later in the late afternoon to go again — only to learn that you are only allowed to enter the Walls once on a ticket.
That’s probably a good idea. In the summer Dubrovnik is PACKED shoulder-to-shoulder with tourists. This small area really can’t handle this many visitors in high season.
I generally followed Hahnenkamm – Seidlalm – Ganslernalm on AllTrails. But diverged a number of times if any other trail heading downhill looked more interesting.
The Seidlalm reservoirs were a highlight, slightly off that route.
With good weather I did find it an easy day. Starting at the top of the mountain (2000m) and finishing in Kitzbühel (762m), it IS a lot of downhill. 😀
IF headed for Austria, do some research into tourist passes.
For example, many hostels and hotels can give you a FREE tourist card.
Out of Kitzbühel, that means free train and bus travel.
Free transportation over this area.
With that card, next check for deals on lift tickets. Over 3 days. Over 5 days. Etc.
