The Best Things to Do in Dubrovnik, Croatia's Ambling Seaside City | Condé Nast Traveler

"Taking the cable car (or hiking) up Mount Srđ rewards you with panoramic views of the city, coastline and islands, and at the summit the Homeland War Museum in Fort Imperial—built by the French in 1812 and dedicated to Napoleon I—offers important historical context about the region." - Katie Monk

The Perfect 7-Day Croatia Itinerary (Updated 2025)

"Taking the cable car up to the top of Mt. Srd costs 27 EUR, but once you take the ride and see the view you’ll realize it was well worth it; if you’re on a budget you can hike the challenging dirt trail (about an hour each way) and, once at the top, sit at the restaurant and nurse an overpriced beverage while taking in the jaw‑dropping panorama." - Matthew Kepnes

Amazing views! Definitely a must-have while visiting Dubrovnik. You can get there with 3 different ways - cable car (19€ one way (with the 2€ fee that they don't show at first) or 32€ return ticket) or by an Uber (it was 22€ for us at Sunset, so just 11€ per person - more suitable option) or you can walk there - it's not hard, but it's gonna take you like 2 hours (according to Google Maps).

I will recommend either walking up or down, or both ways by walking, as there are much better views somewhat midway. The hike is not steep gradient, but it is rugged with pebbles and rocks. If just taking the cable car and watch from the tower, the view is greatly obstructed by the cablecar post and cables.

Absolutely loved the hike up here! If taking a tour, cable car or other method up you might feel differently. There is only so much to do and see but the views are amazing. The war museum is sobering but worthwhile if you and interested in taking a deeper dive into Croatia.

I recommend hiking Srđ for sunset! Incredible views and great adventure. The hike itself is not very demanding for young people, but keep in mind to stay hydrated. Theres also cable car available, but for fullest experience i strongly insist on doing the hike yourself.

One of the best places in the world to watch the sunset. You can either drive to there by a car or using the cable car which you will need to pay for. Definitely a place to visit during sunset hour when in Dubrovnik. A 10-15minute drive from the Old Town. Beautiful sunset views and views on the different islands and Dubrovnik. Highly recommended

Amazing views, fun and easy hike

I recommend hiking if you can start early enough in morning before sun & humidity are too intense. It's easier to get dropped off than find limited parking on a busy road. Amazing views and museum at the top.

A 400m high hilltop with amazing views down to Dubrovik, to Lokrum and the Adriatic sea. Easily reachable with the cable car, the hilltop offers alongside the amazing views a smallish fort built by the French during Napoleons rule (with a museum inside) and a huge stone cross. The museum tells the history of the siege of Dubrovnik during Yugoslavia's breakup wars when heavy fighting took place in and around the mountain.
