Klis Fortress, a formidable medieval stronghold, offers panoramic views of Split, the Adriatic Sea, and the surrounding Dalmatian landscape, and is famously known as a filming location for "Game of Thrones." Accessible primarily by car or bus from Split, visitors should be prepared for uneven terrain and numerous stairs within the fortress, making it challenging for those with mobility impairments. While exploring independently with information panels is feasible and allows for flexible pacing, guided tours, often combined with Split excursions, provide richer historical and cultural context. The fortress is generally open year-round, though specific opening hours vary seasonally, with spring and autumn offering the most pleasant weather for a visit to avoid summer heat or winter chill. An approximate entrance fee typically ranges from 8 to 10 EUR, and visitors usually spend 1 to 2 hours exploring its ramparts and enjoying the breathtaking vistas. Comfortable footwear is highly recommended.
