Gita in bici di un giorno da Rabac a Cherso

Ride from Rabac to Cres and get ready for a real adventure! Starting from the lively coastal village of Rabac—famous for its beautiful pebble beaches and clear blue water—you’ll wind your way through the wild heart of eastern Istria and cross over to the island of Cres.

This roughly 53-km journey is no easy cruise—the route packs in over 1800 meters of climbing, with lots of ups and downs, so it’s a ride that’ll keep your legs working. The path is really varied: expect gravel, unpaved sections, and only some brief paved stretches. You’ll mostly be on quiet paths and tracks, perfect if you love nature and don’t mind getting a little dusty. There are even some proper cycleways to break up the detours, but don’t be surprised if you find yourself rattling along loose gravel or forest ground now and then.

Finishing in Cres, you’ll roll into laid-back Mediterranean charm, with narrow streets, a picturesque harbor, and a relaxed island vibe. Don’t forget to stop for a gelato by the sea—you’ve earned it after all those climbs!
