LONELY PLANET'S OFFICIAL ITINERARY INFORMATION
Itinerary: Outdoor Adventures
Untitled Document
Hikers, bikers, windsurfers and divers have no shortage of options in Croatia.
The hills around
Samobor are favourite weekend hiking spots for Zagreb’s urbanites, but real nature-lovers head down to the less-visited
Risnjak National Park for gentle walks and more demanding hikes.
Rovinj is known for its many dives, especially the wreck of the
Baron Gautsch, one of the Adriatic’s most fascinating shipwrecks. From Lovran, hiking up Vojak in the
Ucka mountain range provides unforgettable views of the Kvarner coast.
Mali Lošinj is crisscrossed with bike paths, and nearby
Susak is known for its reef, accessible even for beginning divers.
Paklenica National Park is popular for its rock climbing and provides a good base for hikes along the Velebit Range.
Dugi Otok has a spectacular underwater landscape for experienced cave divers and the
Pakleni Islands off Hvar have an underwater reef and canyon to explore.
Bol, on the island of Brac, is the windsurfing capital of Croatia, while
Mljet National Park is best explored by bike.
