Water temperature…
Konjsko is located in the municipality of Dugopolje, on a plateau north of Split. The village is a typical example of settlements in the Dalmatian Zagora, where life has been shaped for centuries by stone and scarce water. Despite the barren landscape, the area is today strategically important due to its proximity to the Dugopolje economic center. Historically, Konjsko lay on old trade routes connecting the sea with the hinterland. Today, it primarily attracts people looking for a house in the countryside who still want to reach the city quickly. The karst landscape gives interesting formations and is popular with mountain bikers and hikers who appreciate peace away from the coast. Nearby is the impressive Vranjača cave, a natural monument with spectacular stalactites and stalagmites. Culinarilly, the area is known for meat specialties prepared under the 'peka' (a bell-shaped lid). Konjsko has an authentic insight into life behind the mountains, just a 20-minute drive from Diocletian's Palace in Split.
