Points of interest along the route

  1. Point of interest after 126.1 km

    Rakovica: We cycle roads that are nearly traffic free around Rakovica, a community founded in the Middle Ages and known historically for the 1871 uprising led by Eugen Kvaternik. While unsuccessful, it was the first attempt to win independence for the state of Croatia. Cycling through traditional villages, we come to Baracā€™s Caves, where we stop to explore the caveā€™s fascinating karsts formations. According to the oral tradition of the local people, a man named Barac fought heroically and defeated a raging Turkish giant near these caves which were thereafter named in his honor. Along the way, we stop for a tasty lunch in a local village. Relax this evening in Korana Village

  2. Point of interest after 134.3 km

    Plitvice Lakes National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Croatia's premiere inland destination. Today we explore the park's spectacular karst landscape - a sequence of 16 turquoise lakes linked together with cascading falls and travertine pools. The lakes are surrounded by beech and pine forests and are home to extensive wildlife. We enjoy a picnic lunch along the trail. This evening we retire to the tiny village of Korana located in a picture-postcard riverside setting near Plitvice Park.

  3. Point of interest after 274.5 km

    Krka national park: Explore Krka National Park's extensive waterways before going to Trogir. A last day of exploring takes us to Krka National Park with its fantastic karst formations and travertine waterfalls. We explore the park's extensive waterways and complex history dating back to late 10th century and the first Croatian kings. We have the option to visit Skradinski buk waterfall, the place where the second hydro plant in the world was built, just a few years after the one on Niagara Falls. In the afternoon we drive to Trogir and spend the remainder of the day exploring in the old town
