Zavizan Velebit sits in Lika & Gorski Kotar, a part of Croatia with its own character, and the viewpoint is the reason most people stop.

Check the weather before you commit to a drive or a climb. Haze kills the view, and the best light is around sunrise or the hour before sunset.

## Practical info

- **Entry:** look up the current price and opening hours before you go. Both change through the year, and a few spots close completely out of season.
- **How to get there:** Tap the map for the route. Croatian town parking is mostly paid and marked with blue P signs; if your trip involves an island, build buffer time in for the ferry.

## Best time to visit

Zavizan Velebit rewards a visit between **May and October**. The sweet spot is June or September, when the water is warm and the crowds thinner than in July and August. Come in winter and you find a quieter, cheaper country, at its most likeable inland.
