MTB experience in the Croatian island paradise Spend a week on a charming motor sailor and travel to the islands of Cres, Molat, Dugi Otok, Pag, Rab and Krk. Your guide will accompany you to the hidden corners of the region. The hilly to mountainous landscape with partly challenging slopes requires a good physical condition. The islands vary greatly and therefore offer a large variety while biking: wide natural paths, small side roads, Roman roads, seafront promenades and narrow paths will lead you across the islands.This MTB & boat tour is aimed at off-road fans who enjoy a tour outdoors in nature in varying terrain but is not specifically trail orientated. The dedicated MTB trail percentage is limited to what the islands have to offer. TO NOTE: This tour sometimes takes place prallel to our hybrid bike & boat tour on the same boat. One tour guide takes care of the mountain bikers whilst the other one accompanies our hybrid riders. This is perfect for travellers who wish to spend their holiday together, but do not share the same riding preference.

Embarkation takes place between 2 and 2:30 pm. The 4 hour crossing to Cres starts at 3 pm. Meanwhile we can sit back, relax and enjoy the beautiful views of Rijeka and the looming Učka Mountain. We spend the evening in the Venetian influenced town of Cres. 2nd Day Islands of Cres and Lošinj(aprx. 28 km / 750 m of elevation) After breakfast our tour starts from the city of Cres and takes us to the small port of Martinšćica. After an efficient climb on asphalt roads, the off-road ride can begin with incredible views over the bay of Valun. After a nice break in the village of Podol, we continue on natural paths and goats tracks with at times flowy sections, past the Vraner Lake to our boat in Martinšćica. Enjoy the cruise from here to Mali Lošinj. The port with its colourful facades and numerous cafes offers its visitors a welcoming atmosphere for a relaxed evening. 3rd Day Islands of Lošinj and Molat(aprx. 26 + 14 km/250 + 212 m of elevation) In the morning a short tour leads us across the island of Lošinj, which is literally made for mountain biking. We bike through pine forests, past palm trees and agaves, along a promenade to the mirrored city of Veli Lošinj, the former capital of the island. The perfect place for an ice cream and coffee break. Back on the ship, one of the most beautiful crossovers awaits us. Arriving on the flower island of Molat we starts a second bike tour. Although there are no prepared trails on this island, Molat impresses with its rich vegetation, neat gardens and great views of the neighbouring islands. 4th Day Islands of Dugi Otok and Zadar(aprx. 36 km / 550 m of elevation) During breakfast the ship brings us to the island of Dugi Otok, which we explore mostly on asphalt roads. The scenic road frequently opens to magnificent views of bays, islands and the mainland. Many spots offer a view of the sea on both sides of the island. Our ship can be seen navigating to the next harbour where it awaits our arrival in Savar or Brbinj. There will be ample time for a swim break in the afternoon before we continue on to Zadar. Zadar has been the political, cultural and spiritual centre of Dalmatia for centuries. 3000 years of history have left their imprint on the character of this town and there are many things to be admired: the mighty fortified walls with their bastions, the loggia and the early Romanesque St. Donatus Basilica. In the evening our tour guide takes us on an extensive walk through the lively city centre. 5th Day Islands of Pag and Rab(aprx. 34 km / 506 m of elevation) After a morning crossing we reach the island of Pag. Today’s bike tour takes us mainly on asphalt roads past stone walls and a sheep’s pastures to Novalja. After a short coffee break we continue to the northernmost part of the island Pag. The rugged, karstic island is covered with herbs, providing the ideal basis for the famous aromatic cheese of Pag. Another island icon are the ancient olive groves of Lun, through which we descend just before the end of the tour. The short cruise to Rab offers us a marvellous view of the medieval city walls of the city. After landing, we can explore the picturesque old town on a leisurely walk. 6th Day Islands of Rab and Krk(aprx. 34 km / 600 m of elevation) Rab is a small island, but excellent for mountain biking. It offers plenty of opportunities and varying bike terrain. Today’s tour takes us along narrow promenades and Roman roads, along flowy trail sections and through shaded forests around the island, with constant glimpses of the clear blue sea. Once back at the boat, we start our cruise to the nearby island of Krk. We hope to throw the anchor along the way for a refreshing swim stop. The evening and night is spent in the historical town of Krk. 7th Day Krk Island(aprx. 45 km / 820 m of elevation) Our last bike tour leads us across the so called “golden island” of Krk. The famous Zlahtin grape vines thrive here, grown mainly around the town of Vrbnik. We bike past vast vineyards, olive groves and long stone walls. After a coffee break, we follow the wide coastal paths back to the muddy bay in Soline. The final stretch takes us along narrow paths and through peaceful villages to Omišalj, where we can enjoy the end of our trip with a cozy evening on board. 8th Day Omišalj (Disembarkation) Disembarkation takes place after breakfast, i. e. around 9 am.
