On the island of Brač you will find the mountain hut „Gažul“. It is situated in the wider area of Vidova Gora, the highest island mountain on the Adriatic. The house blends into the beautiful forest landscape, and for that reason it is gladly visited throughout the whole year.
The house has a kitchen and dishes, and in the attic there are 25 overnight places. You need your own sleeping bags, and next to the house there is an outdoor toilet, water from a water tank, and electricity from solar power.
Gažul is reached by car, via Nerežišća, and at the turn-off for Vidova Gora continue travelling east towards Bol.
The mountain hut today serves members of the HGSS (Croatian Mountain Rescue Service), Brač unit, for storing equipment needed for search and rescue operations, for gatherings, and for holding exercises and duty shifts.
It is located next to a small Brač shepherd settlement of stone cottages and livestock pens. Every year a livestock fair is held here, a special opportunity to try Brač lamb and the speciality „vitalac“.
Every year, now traditionally, the people of Brač prepare a fair marked by good company and even better food.
At the fair there are usually mostly sheep, which is only logical given that Brač is known worldwide for its famous lamb and its sheep's cheese production.
The livestock fair on Brač has become very popular and well regarded among guests and visitors. Many like to come to the fair to look at the breeds, while others like to taste the delicacies and the delicious meat from Brač.
Besides sheep, at the fair you can also see donkeys, foals, horses, mares and their foals. There are also mules, and more recently cows too. The fair is today a tourist attraction. Today the fair is very popular, and the clicking sound of cameras has become an integral part of the fair. Everyone wants to take home a piece of the atmosphere. Enjoying good company, food and drink is really all a person needs for a good holiday.
Lamb roasted on the spit is special and everyone likes to try it. There is also the essential Brač cheese, and many other delicacies that guests can try.
Today on Brač we also have family-run rural farms, specially set up with an offer for guests who like to enjoy a mountain setting and the atmosphere among domestic animals. If you are curious how the famous Brač cheese is made, how sheep are kept, or about some other natural treasure, visit one of the farms and stay for a few days.
We are confident that you will enjoy yourselves and learn a lot about the culture and life of the people of Brač.
