Beautiful fort, beautiful remains, thick walls, a beautiful interior. Remarkable how the military world looked a few centuries ago. Knights with swords walked the paths.... Around the fort has grown over in the meantime, many trees, little view of how it must have once been.

Hiking

Constructed during the Middle Ages, Stari grad Velika is an enchanting castle ruin. Built 1,483 feet (452 m) up on the southern ridge of Lapjak, it commands an excellent strategic position above its surroundings. During the Ottoman wars, it played a crucial role in the region's defence but has fallen into disuse since the late 18th century.
