Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Senj à Banjol

Get ready for a leg-stretcher! This cycling route takes you from the historic coastal town of Senj—famous for its imposing Nehaj Fortress and dramatic views over the Adriatic—down to the sunny island vibes of Banjol on Rab Island.

It’s an adventurous ride, covering about 84 km with some serious up-and-down action, so be prepared for a challenge (bring snacks!). Much of the way, you’ll be rolling along gravel paths and tracks, crossing stunning mountain passes with sea panoramas. The climbs are steep (over 1300 meters at the highest point!), but the descents are just as epic.

You’ll experience a mix of tranquil quiet roads, rugged paths, and a taste of real mountain cycling before descending towards the blue waters and sandy beaches of Banjol. When you finish, reward yourself: Banjol is known for its beachside bars and relaxed, sun-soaked atmosphere.

Pack layers, water, and maybe your swimstuff—you'll want to dip in the sea at the end of this epic ride!
