- Description
-
The Umoljani-Krvavac route takes you over the pass of Crveni klanac and Greda. Krvavac can be seen from the pass. You reach Greda relatively quickly; it's only 5-6 kilometres away.
The peak of Krvavac is entirely covered in scrub. There is only one way to the top on the north-east face of Krvavac. You can only see it from the foot of the peak.
On the way back you take the same road. The whole route is some 13km in length, and the altitude difference is around 700m.
- Directions
-
Head northwest from Umoljani, on the road to the pasture villages in Gradina. Continue through Crveni klanac to Dugo Polje. Cross the road in Dugo Polje and continue up the ridge to Krvavac. When you reach the top of the ridge, skirt around from the right and climb to the top of the peak from the east, up the road that carves through the scrub.
