Park Nehaj in Senj is a spacious public park that surrounds the historic Nehaj Fortress, one of the town’s most recognizable landmarks. Open year-round and accessible at any time, the park provides a tranquil green space for both locals and visitors to enjoy. The park features approximately four kilometers of gravel pathways, making it ideal for leisurely walks, jogging, or simply taking in the fresh Adriatic air.

As visitors stroll through Park Nehaj, they are treated to views of the imposing Nehaj Castle, a fortress built in 1558 that once served as a defensive stronghold against Ottoman and Venetian forces. The park’s elevated position offers panoramic vistas of the town of Senj, the Adriatic Sea, and the nearby island of Krk, making it a popular spot for photography and quiet reflection.

While the park itself does not have specific admission fees or restricted hours, its proximity to Nehaj Castle allows for a combined experience of natural beauty and historical exploration. Benches and shaded areas provide places to rest, and the peaceful atmosphere is a welcome contrast to the bustling coastal roads below. Although detailed visitor amenities are not widely documented, Park Nehaj stands out as a serene destination for those looking to connect with Senj’s history and enjoy scenic views in a relaxed setting.
