Our Lady of Karmen
You can reach the settlement of Karmen and the Church of Our Lady of Karmen by two routes: the left turnoff of the road from the village Ruskovići or the walking trail from the western part of Orebić. The walking trail begins in the section of town called Škvar, near the restaurant ‘Karmen’. The marked trail heads directly north, before turning left and passing by the village Viskovići and heading straight towards the Church of Our Lady of Karmen. This old parish church was built in the first half of the 17th century and celebrates its patron saint day on 16 July. Just south of the church is a rustic loggia, where gatherings of the locals used to be held. There are hundred year old cypress trees around the church, some of the few preserved such trees in Dalmatia. Fifty metres northwest of the church are the ruins of the Court of the Trsteno Captain, popularly called the Governor, from the first half of the 14th century. During the days of the Dubrovnik Republic, the Governor was the representative of the Dubrovnik government in these parts. South of the church, the walking trail continues on to the village of Karmen.
To the Franciscan monastery and further west
You can reach the Franciscan monastery and the Church of Our Lady of Angels either by road west of Hotel Bellevue, while the second route heads north of Hotel Orsan. Both climbs take about 25 minutes. The monastery and church were erected in the 15th century in order to monitor ships passing through the Peljesac Channel during the time of the Dubrovnik Republic. The monastery includes a collection of items and art from the monastery’s long history, and votive paintings of sailors from the 17th century. The patron saint day is 15 August – on the Feast of the Assumption. If you continue on westwards, you will arrive at the village of Bilopolje, where a south-westerly turn off the road leads you along the ridge to the Chapel of St. Ana from the 18th century. From Bilopolje straight towards the west, a ten minute walk takes you to the northern turnoff for the medieval Chapel of St. Lawrence (Lovrinac), the patron saint of vineyards. From this point, 100m further to the west, is the old abandoned Semunović house. Another ten minutes will take you to the old village of Zukovac, where the trail heads in a southerly direction towards Zamošće on the sea.
Through the settlements surrounding Orebić
In the foothills of the karst mountains are a series of villages with old fashioned houses erected as far from the sea as possible due to fears of pirate attack. The largest settlement is Stankovici, which can be reached by road from the eastern part of Orebić. On the main square lies the Chapel of St. Antun of Padova. East of Stankovići is the medieval Chapel of St. George (Jurja) with its graveyards and the nearby village of Podvlastica. From Podvlastica, the walking trail heads northeast, and after about an hour’s walk, you will reach Vlastica, which offers a spectacular view of the Pelješac and Neretva Channels. If you continue on the walking trail west from Stankovići, the trail takes you under the uninhabited village of Kajnovići, and on past the villages of Begovići, Glabalovo and Urkunići to the village of Ruskovići. From there, the trail heads west to the Church of Our Lady of Karmen, and on to the village of Gurići, situated under the karst mountain peaks. From Gurići, the trail heads south towards the Franciscan monastery, and then west to the last in this series of mountain villages, Lampalovo.
Kućište and the interior
You can reach Kućište, 5 km from Orebić, by the road along the seashore. The walk begins in the western part of Kućište near the Church of the Holy Trinity, which originates from the second half of the 18th century and is one of the most beautiful Baroque monuments in Dalmatia. West of the church, the road leads to the local graveyard and the medieval Gothic Church of St. Luke. The walking trial heads out east from the graveyard a fifteen minute walk will take you to the Renaissance Chapel of Our Lady’s Annunciation. If you take the path to the left 100m east of the graveyard, you will come to the so-called « fairy table », a large flat rock with small indentations (« fairy plates »), a place where fairies used to congregate according to the local legends. The path west of the graveyard heads to the village of Dol near Viganj.
Through the villages surrounding Viganj
The road along the sea leads to Viganj, about 7 km from Orebić. In the eastern part of Viganj, at the Cape of St. Liberan, is the chapel of the same name dating back to the 16th century. About 150m west of St. Liberan, the road turns off for the village Dol. From Dol, there is a walking trail which passes by several abandoned villages. From the villages Sokolovo and Dumovići, it is possible to climb to the top of Sućuraj (367 m). Only a few minutes’ walk from the village of Dumovići, you will find the parish Church of St. Michael (Mihovil) from the first half of the 18th century. This Baroque church contains much valuable art by domestic and foreign masters. The trail heading west from Dumovići leads you past the village of Podac, and past another six villages until you reach the village Bašina. From Bašina, the trail takes you to the Chapel of St. Ivan from the first half of the 17th century, which is also the westernmost point of Peljesac Riviera.
Two Nakovanas
Gornja (Upper) and Donja (Lower) Nakovana are the oldest settlements in this part of Pelješac. Various artefacts found in both villages prove that these were settled back in the stone age. The road from Viganj will take you here (6-7 kilometres). If you prefer to walk, take the old road. The climb begins at near the Church of Our Lady of the Rosary in the centre of Viganj. This church was part of the former monastery from the 17th century, which belongs to the Baroque style. The walking trail heads north past the Church of St. Michael (Mihovil) and past the villages of Dumovići and Podac to the turn off for the two Nakovana villages. The walk to Upper Nakovana, today completely abandoned, takes about one hour. Lower Nakovana is another kilometre away. At the half-way point between the two villages on the northern side is the medieval Romantic-Gothic Chapel of The Nativity of the Virgin Mary from the 14th century. On the left-hand (southern) side of the road, about 200m away, the steep slopes of Grad rise out of the ground. This represents the richest finding place of items from the Bronze and Iron Ages.
Mount of St. Ilija (Elias)
The Pelješac mountain range, with its highest peak St. Ilija (961 m) is the most attractive site for walkers and hikers in this part of Pelješac. The walk to the peak takes about two hours and the climb is possible from four starting points: (a) from the village Urkunići, 200 m east of the village of Ruskovici; (b) from the village of Gurići, about 800 m north of the Franciscan monastery; (c) from the village of Bilopolje, 1 km west of the Franciscan monastery and (d) from Gornja Nakovana, 6 km northwest of Viganj.

Walking trails Trpanj
It’s a special pleasure to enjoy in a walk by the sea that starts on the Trpanj promenade, follows the coast, coves and beaches. A stunning view of the sea and mediterannean foliage, dense pine woods will leave you breathless. The track is suitable for both running and jogging, with benches for resting located along certain points on the road. The length of the track is 1300m, and it ends above the Blace cove that’s known for its healing mud repositories.
