Vrisnik

Vrisnik lies along the inland slopes of Hvar Island, where low limestone hills descend towards the Adriatic and cultivated plots interrupt the karst terrain. Part of the municipality of Jelsa, this small Dalmatian settlement stands apart from the island’s busier seafront towns. Olive groves, vineyards and fig trees reflect farming traditions closely tied to Hvar, while narrow lanes and stone houses retain the character of a rural island community. To the west lies the UNESCO-listed Stari Grad Plain, whose agricultural grid was established by Greek settlers in the 4th century BC.
