Croatia is one of Europe's fastest-growing cycling destinations — quiet island roads lined with lavender and olive groves, coastal routes with Adriatic views at every bend, and mountain bike trails through ancient karst forest. Two wheels is the best way to actually experience Dalmatia.

About This Experience

Cycle Croatia's Islands and Dalmatian Coast

The Croatian islands were made for cycling. Away from the main tourist areas, the roads are quiet, the gradients gentle, and the scenery extraordinary — olive groves and lavender fields on Hvar, vineyard lanes on Korčula, and coastal roads on Brač that wind between turquoise coves with no cars in sight. Road bikes, e-bikes and hybrid cycles are all available.

The most popular cycling route in Dalmatia runs from Split along the coast to Omiš — 30km of flat coastal road with the Biokovo mountains on one side and the Adriatic on the other. From Omiš, you're at the starting point for Cetina River rafting, making the combination of coastal cycling and river rafting one of the best active day trips from Split.

For mountain biking, the karst terrain around Šibenik and the Dalmatian hinterland offers technical singletrack trails through pine forest and limestone plateaux. Our MTB guides know the best trails — from beginner-friendly forest routes to technical descents for experienced riders. All tours come with a bike fit, safety briefing, and a guide who knows exactly where the best cafe stops are.
