While hiking, mountain climbing or simply walking, we derive the maximum pleasure from nature and its endless beauties. We can set our own pace. When something interests us on an excursion, we can stop wherever we like - at a clearing or beach, forest or belvedere, and remain as long as we like.
 In this brochure, we propose another option that provides the same level of freedom and enjoyment, if not more. We want to expand your options, without enclosing you in a car or bus.

We invite you to become acquainted with the beauties of our hospitable region on a bicycle. When you ride a bicycle, you can stop wherever you want, savoring the colors, fragrances and sounds as you pedal leisurely. If you feel the urge to ride a little faster because you have already become acquainted with a particular area, or if you wish to hurry in order to linger somewhere else, simply pedal a little faster and you will soon leave all the pedestrians behind.

In Kvarner, you can bicycle as much as you like. Bicycle experts have selected nineteen bicycle routes for you, and propose a journey that covers the entire Kvarner region. Naturally, you will need somewhat more time for such a journey but you have already taken this into account.
We have prepared this brochure with road maps, altitude profiles and descriptions of your movements. These routes were prepared by cyclists who know the region very well, and who attempted to anticipate your eventual wishes. Leafing through this booklet, you will notice that there are routes for every taste and degree of physical stamina. We have described each route in detail, to let you know what is in store for you.

 If you wish to travel through Kvarner in a larger group, call us at our contact telephone numbers and we shall gladly advise you or provide a guide, who will acquaint you with the region you are travelling through in your own language, calling your attention to details you might overlook on your own.
At the Tourism Association of Primorje-Gorski Kotar County and other tourism associations in Kvarner, many interesting publications await you. Contact us. We are here to make your visit as pleasant as possible, so that you will return soon. In this region, you can climb mountains, sail, dive, explore cultural and historical treasures and, not insignificantly, experience very special gastronomic delights. Our tourism professionals offer a yearround program, which has been increasingly successful every year.
Welcome to Kvarner! Have a good time bicycling! We hope to see you again soon!
