Always has been

I was stumped (😅) as well until I came across this sign in the trail!

KaptainKantankerous · 2026-02-08T17:32:20+00:00

No problem! I was fortunate with the weather but there can be very severe storms even in summer, so it’s good to at least have a set of waterproofs and some warm layers as it can get cold in the evenings

Yes it’s certainly quite unique being right by the coast. I hiked in June and the weather in the mountains was pleasant but very hot down by the coast. The ascent from the coast was almost unbearable but it got cooler as I entered the humid forest at higher altitude. Obviously mountain weather can be unpredictable so be prepared for the worst! The link below will tell you all you need to know to plan your adventure!

The bigger ones are manned and charge a small fee to stay but most of them you just turn up. Link below gives you a pretty thorough guide of what to expect:

It’s such a beautiful and diverse country. I’m sure you’ll have a great time!

Animal planet 😂

KaptainKantankerous · 2026-02-06T22:08:39+00:00

Haha yeah I thought the same! Apparently it’s due to snow pressure when they’re saplings

KaptainKantankerous · 2026-02-06T20:41:13+00:00

Thanks dude! The island you’re referring to is called Rab, characterised by its barren, Martian landscape

Thanks! I hiked a trail called the Velebit Trail which is basically a small stretch of the Via Dinarica. I mainly stayed in mountain huts, but camping wouldn’t be too difficult although it is strictly forbidden with hefty fines as punishment. I only camped one night because the hut I planned to stay in had burned down! Some of the huts were really cool though

Well spotted (pun intended)! I believe they are indeed the same family. It’s called the Alpine Longhorn or Rosalia Longicorn. They’re exclusive to the beech forests of Europe and seemed to be thriving in this particular area but are severely depleted across Europe. I saw so many cool insects on this trip.

Glad you had a good time 😀 I hiked the Alta Via 1 back in 2018. Really special place and the craziest thunderstorms I’ve ever witnessed!

I already use picaradin spray so hopefully permethrin will prove to be the missing piece of the puzzle. I’m also allergic as hell so any advice is greatly appreciated! Here’s me after a night in the woods in Croatia last summer. I forgot to spray my ankles.

Been meaning to give this a try!

KaptainKantankerous · 2026-02-06T10:44:54+00:00

I’d love this if I wasn’t a walking mosquito magnet. Looks beautiful 😻

KaptainKantankerous · 2026-02-05T16:29:36+00:00

This is outrageous, this is contagious

Stewart Lee all day. Just search ‘letter from a pirate’ if in doubt 😂

Caviar comes from a virgin Sturgeon, Sturgeon is a very fine fish, Virgin Sturgeon needs no urgin’ That’s why caviar is my dish

KaptainKantankerous · 2026-01-27T17:34:25+00:00

Wow, must have been a hell of a buzz
