Venice & the Dalmatian Coast June 2023 Hiking
Hello - we are scheduled for the June 2023 cruise and would appreciate any insights/suggestion on hiking boots for the Hvar Hiking and Krka National Park excursions. Do you need serious hiking boots or will a good walking shoe with good tread suffice? Trying to keep the packing to a minimum. Thanks so much!

Wow, are Tauck doing a new hiking tour. The only tour I felt I needed substantial boots was the Rwanda Gorilla trek. Otherwise Tauck tours do have walking but it is geared to seniors.in my experience.
We did the land tour of that area (with Tauck) and there was nothing that required anything more than regular shoes.
I am booked for the Venice and Dalmatia Coast trip in June. Has anyone been on the Lovcen Hike and Picnic tour in Kotor? Is it as strenuous as they say it is? Appreciate your input.
I did the land tour and we did not have that option in Kotor, the land tour was more comprehensive.
I did this cruise in 2023.
The Lovcen hike is strenuous as a long shadeless uphill hike without any resting point until at the top. The hike usually just involves 2-3 participants, the younger and athletic ones. No hiking shoe is needed. If you are an avid intermediate hiker in the states, you will have no problem. No special equipment is needed.
The Kotor picnic must be new.
The Pula/Rovinj bike ride is very tough on uneven terrain.
