“Let’s Discover Raduč” is a civic initiative aimed at enhancing the local community and promoting sustainable development through grassroots actions. This project is part of the Kajo Dadić Foundation's "Our Contribution to the Community" initiative, which collaborates with the National Foundation for Civil Society Development to financially support civic actions that improve life quality in local areas.
Raduč Hill stands as the highest peak on Murter Island, reaching 128 meters in height. The hill offers stunning viewpoints that capture the beauty of the Murter Sea, the Kornati Islands, and the surrounding archipelago. Historically, the site boasts remnants of a military complex built during the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, which includes a command building, observation tower, and a series of tunnels. However, the current state of these facilities is concerning due to neglect, posing safety risks to visitors.
The main goal of "Let’s Discover Raduč" is to invigorate local activism and volunteerism while enhancing awareness of the cultural and natural significance of Raduč Hill. The initiative seeks to develop active tourism in the area through properly arranged trails for hiking, biking, and running.
