Here you can find directions to Hostel Split from the Local Bus or Train Station, Airport Bus and Taxi, Regional Destinations and International Destinations

DIRECTIONS TO HOSTEL FROM SPLIT BUS OR TRAIN STATION
From Split main bus or train station, turn right. From the ferry terminal turn left and walk towards town.
Airport and Taxi arrivals find themselves at Pt 2 on map.

Walk along the "wall side" (on the Rt) of the waterfront just a short distance until you come to the gates of the underground part of the Diocletian palace (30 M) on your Rt.

Enter these gates into the "crypt" and walk through this part of the Palace and up the steep steps at the end. You are now in a square with the Tourist info on your right a little in front. BUT you turn left at the top of this Sq. and walk about 80 m then you enter the old town Sq.

Turn right and you are on Bosanska, walk up here for 40m past " None" pizza and a little further is a bakery (KeKo Pekarna) opposite this is Kruziceva on your left. We are along here on the right at number 10.

I have given enormous detail on this walk as a lot of "intrepid" travellers were getting lost last year. The walk time from ferry to hostel is maybe 10 mins if you still haven't found us after 20mins.........

GETTING TO SPLIT - REGIONAL LINKS

BUS
There are direct buses from Zagreb, Dubrovnik, Sarajevo, Rijeka and a variety of smaller coastal towns. If you are coming from Zagreb there are "express buses" that take 5 and 1/2 hours and use the motorway for most of the journey. This route traverses some dramatic scenery wild mountain terrain and vast untamed countryside. However it DOES NOT go via Plitvice National Park.

The fast bus via Knin takes 6 and 1/2 less dramatic but does allow you to
stop at Plitvice N.P.

The other option is only for those travellers who haven't spent enough of
their time sitting down and goes via Zadar and then along the coast it
takes between 9 and 10 hours. ENJOY.

Buying a return ticket will save you around 30% on the price of two singles
but you must travel with the same bus company. This applies to all routes
throughout Croatia.

NOTE: The bus driver isn't trying to rip you off. You will be expected to
pay 5-7 Kunas for each piece of luggage transported, don't ask me why.

TRAIN
There are between two and five connections to Zagreb a day(depending if its Winter or Summer). A fast train service will run two or three times a day in Summer, journey takes 5 hours. You must specify you want to travel on the fast train, seats are limited.


My favorite website for reliable train info is a German site and look for the "International" button if you need it:

FERRY
Ferries depart and arrive a number of times a day from the Central Dalmatian coast islands. There are also ferries for and from Rijeka and Dubrovnik. The ferry to Dubrovnik calls first in Hvar town and then at Korcula and takes about 7-8 hours. It is very beautiful but can get a bit boring after a time The Rijeka journey is usually overnight.

Internationally the only ferry (as of Spring 2005) travels to Ancona in Italy. These are usually at night in either direction. Recently a service to Venice has been added which operates only in high season.
