Cycling day trip from Njivice to Punat

This scenic cycling route connects Njivice, a cozy seaside town on Krk Island’s northwestern coast, with Punat, famous for its marina and the beautiful islet of Košljun. Covering about 27.5 km, you’ll enjoy a mix of cycleways and peaceful roads, rolling up and down (expect almost 350 m of ascent and descent). Overall, the ride leans toward smooth asphalt and paved stretches, but you’ll still find the occasional rustic track—perfect for a little adventure—so a hybrid or gravel bike is a smart pick.

Along the way, you’ll skirt olive groves and get great Adriatic views. The roads are generally quiet, making for a relaxing ride. Once you arrive in Punat, reward yourself with a stroll along the harbor or catch a boat to the Franciscan monastery on Košljun Island. Ride safe and stop often for photos!
