Vojnić Sinjski is located in the Cetinska Krajina region, set in the rugged but fascinating landscape of the Dalmatian Zagora. The settlement lies on the northeastern edge of the Sinj field, directly beneath the imposing peaks of the Kamešnica mountain range. This location shapes life in the village, which for centuries has been determined by livestock farming and agriculture. The surroundings offer excellent conditions for hikers and mountaineers who wish to explore the untouched nature of the border mountains with Bosnia. Nearby flows the Cetina River, known for rafting and fishing. Culturally, Vojnić is closely linked to Sinj, the city of the famous knightly tournament 'Sinjska Alka'.
