Biokovo | Karst landscape with Sveti Ilija

WI_hr768.jpg

Panoramic view down the slopes of Sveti Jure in W direction over the limestone highland of the Biokovo mountain massif, with Sveti Ilija (1642 m) shown in the right centre of the image. The countless holes characterizing the uneven topography of the highland are dolines, very common features in the karst landscapes of the Dinaric Mountains. The Adriatic Sea with the island of Brač is shown in the left background of the photo, whereas the Dalmatian Hinterland appears in the right background.
