Excursión ciclista de un día de Novalja a Pag

Get ready for a scenic island ride from Novalja to Pag! This route is about 23 km, so it’s perfect for a solid half-day adventure, combining some exercise with amazing Adriatic views. You’ll climb nearly 450 meters along the way, but the rolling hills are rewarded with stunning panoramas of the sea and dramatic, rocky landscapes—the kind Pag island is famous for.

Starting out from Novalja, a lively beach town popular for its summer energy and Zrće Beach parties, you’ll roll out over a mix of quiet roads and tracks, mostly on smooth asphalt and pavement, but with chunks of gravel and unpaved stretches—so don’t bring your slickest road tires. Traffic is minimal; you’ll more likely encounter sheep than cars!

As you descend into Pag town, you’ll notice its unique salt fields and historic stone bridge, along with narrow old streets to explore. Take time to sample the renowned local cheese (Paški sir) and savor the island’s laid-back vibe before heading back—or staying a little longer. This ride is a little off the beaten path, but totally worth the effort!
