💡 Tips

Take advantage of the proximity to Imotski (5 km) to visit the Red and Blue Lakes, two of Europe's deepest karst lakes.
Look for traditional stone architecture with 'balatura' (external stairs) in the old part of the village.
Visit the Zovnjača cave if you are interested in geology and the unique karst phenomena of the area.
Visit the Blue Lake during broad daylight to best see the intense blue color of the water.
Summers can be very hot; it's best to explore the karst fields in the early morning hours.

Old stone alleys

The quiet stone alleys of Krivodol offer a glimpse into traditional village life.

Krivodol is located in the hinterland of Central Dalmatia, embedded in the harsh but fascinating landscape of the Imotski region. The village is characterized by the traditional construction with local natural stone, which blends harmoniously into the gray karst rocks. Travelers appreciate Krivodol as a starting point for visiting the famous natural wonders of Imotski, such as the Blue Lake and the Red Lake, which are only a short drive away. The surrounding area has handy conditions for hiking and exploring untouched nature. The local economy is based on traditional agriculture, with viticulture and livestock farming playing a central role. Culinarilly, visitors can enjoy the full-bodied local wine and specialties such as meat prepared under the peka (baking dome). Despite the seclusion, the village provides a deep insight into traditional Dalmatian life, far from the crowded coastal towns, while the Biokovo mountain and the sea still remain reachable.
