Boluni Stećci

TIME : 2016/2/18 16:55:00

Less known then Radimlja but arguably more atmospheric is a collection of over 270 stećci in two groups under old oak trees at Boluni, 18km from Stolac. Highlights include the cross-shaped tombstone of warrior-hero Vladko Vuković. Boluni is rather a long way to go as a special trip but only 4.2km off the Stolac–Neum road, itself a narrow, ultra-rural delight passing right beside the Hutovo fortress ruins and through several timeless, almost Tuscan, villages.

If driving Stolac–Neum, consider stopping briefly in Gradac with its old houses, church, cafe and shop, and consider sleeping in Moševići where Agroturizam Matuško is a brilliant little three-room getaway.
