This Manita Cave hiking tour will take you around and under the beautiful Paklenica National Park, where you'll find a buried paradise!
While there are many underground formations in Paklenica National Park, Manita Cave is the only one suited for tourist sightseeing. It is a 175-meter long formation, with two broad chambers full of stalactites, stalagmites and cascades. Moreover, the cave is rich in underground fauna!
I'll meet you at the park's entrance. And we'll start walking towards the top of the Velika Paklenica Canyon where the views are amazing! We'll be able to see the vertical cliffs rise 700 meters above both sides of the canyon.
Then we'll go down to the cave, where we'll spend around 30 minutes. During this tour I'll show you many secrets of this intriguing underground world!
After the cave tour, we'll hike down to the bottom of the Canyon and walk along the creek to the mountain lodge. Here, you'll be able to have a mountain meal or you can bring your own packed lunch for a picnic.
So don't hesitate to contact me for this astonishing Manita Cave Hiking Tour! And if you're looking to enjoy Croatia's wilderness for a longer time check out this trip: Croatia 7-day hiking.

Mountain Leader
I was born in Zadar, but I grew up at the base of Velebit, the greatest Croatian mountain, and this shaped the rest of my life. Living in the nature gave me everything I dreamed of. In the same place I had mountains, river and the sea.
I am CMGA certified (Croatian Mountain Guide Association) and UIMLA guide (2013).
I love to explore new destinations, sharing them with nature lovers. And there's more than just the adventure. Indeed, I will take you to discover the locations learning the local people way of living and trying the traditional local food.
In the end, my goal is for you to take home the best memories of this experience!

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
