Vidova Gora
The town of Bol is backed by the highest peak on all the Croatian islands, Vidova gora, and from here, at a height of 778 meters (2,552 feet) above sea level, the Adriatic Sea and the islands of Hvar and Vis spread out before you like a map. It's possible to reach the top following a clearly marked footpath from Bol, but be sure to wear good hiking boots, take plenty of water, and expect to walk at least 2½ hours to reach the summit. Alternatively, rent a mountain bike from Big Blue Sport and cycle up—note that you need to be pretty fit to face the challenge by bike or by foot. If you have a headlamp and are relatively fit, wake early and hike up before sunrise, or go in the late afternoon and watch the sun set.
