St. Michael’s Fortress on Ugljan

St. Michael’s Fortress on Ugljan is a unique excursion opportunity that blends rich history with the most beautiful view of the Adriatic.

Perched 265 meters above sea level right above Preko, this 14th-century Venetian fortress offers a spectacular, panoramic view of hundreds of islands in the Zadar archipelago. Well-maintained hiking and cycling trails steeped in the scent of maquis lead up to it, making it perfect for spring and autumn family trips and adventures. Visiting this fortress, especially during a magical sunset, is a chance to experience the authentic soul of Ugljan and enjoy the peaceful island rhythm that recharges your batteries for the entire year.
