About Rudolf
I’m an award-winning travel writer, photographer and guidebook author specialising in Central and Eastern Europe – in particular Croatia, Slovenia, Austria and Montenegro, as well as France and Italy. I'm the author of a dozen guidebooks, writing for Bradt, Cicerone, DK Eyewitness and National Geographic Traveller – including the first English language hiking guides to Croatia, Montenegro, the Peaks of the Balkans and the Alpe Adria Trail – and my articles and images are published in B Inspired, BBC Countryfile, France Magazine, Geographical, Hidden Europe, The Independent, Lonely Planet, Morning Calm, National Geographic Traveller UK, The Great Outdoors, Wanderlust etc.
I first visited Croatia and Slovenia in the late 1990s, and lived in Zagreb for two years – a place I still consider a second home. I’m happiest when travelling with my daughter, or up a mountain, or hiding away on a small island on the Adriatic.
