The old fort is probably the highest point of the island but you can see all angles from here.

A massive hill to climb to get to this fort but the views are outstanding. Also the fort is in good condition so you can walk in and even climb to the top

Beautiful place, but beware if u come here whit the plan to travel to Sali or Kornati, there is no transportation, only a taxi wich may cost 300-400 Kuna,

Amazing place with breathing views. The hike all the way to the top of the island was easy and anyone can do it with a minimum effort. My sister-in-law was with my niece in a stroller and she didn't go to the fort with us, but they stayed and played with the peacocks and they had a really good time to.

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
