Description

An authoritative seven-day cycling itinerary mapping the raw transition from the Venetian ports of Istria down to the ancient limestone heart of Dalmatia. This curated route links Rovinj to Split, tracing a high-velocity line across the rugged Adriatic landscape. The route pairs fast tarmac pacing with technical red-dirt gravel, tracking the steep coastal shelf of the Velebit range before leaping onto the stark moonscape of Pag Island. Riders cross dramatic concrete spans, navigate the deep karst hinterland, and roll alongside centuries-old dry-stone walls. Historic landmarks frame the sequence, from Pula’s Roman amphitheatre to the massive stone gates of Diocletian’s Palace in Split. No logistics overhead. No endless tab management.
