The Ronald Brown Tour
On April 3, 1996 an American Air Force Boeing 737 on an official trade mission to Croatia crashed into the summit of Stražišće peak (701m) on an approach to Dubrovnik Airport near to Cavtat. All 35 people onboard were killed including Ron Brown who was the United States Secretary of Commerce. Walkers can reach the peak using the Ronald Brown Pathway which is an old Austrian Military road renamed to commemorate him. Along the path you can see a variety of endemic plant species, but also some protected animal species. Once at the summit you can enjoy a beautiful view of Cavtat, Konavle, Župa Bay and Dubrovnik.
