From Forum, the central square in the city of Krk, we ride uphill toward the road to Punat. After 500 m, we arrive at a crossroads and turn right. After 5.2 km, we arrive at Sv. Donat, passing by a small Old Christian church, and continue straight up a somewhat steeper slope in the direction of Ba[ka. At 6.8 km, we turn left in the direction of ©ilo-Vrbnik. At 9.7 km, we turn left from the main road to a side road and pass through fields and meadows, bordered by old stone walls. At 13.6 km, we turn right and at 15.8 km we are below the village of Garica and make a right turn. At the entrance to Garica, we turn left. After leaving the village, we continue straight in the direction of Krk. Just prior to the exit to the Omi[alj-Krk Road, we turn left at 24.3 km in the direction of Korniæ. We arrive at the village of Lakmartin (26.2 km), where we turn left at 26.4 km, and arrive in Muraj (27.2 km). In Muraj at 27.5 km, we turn left in the direction of Korniæ, where we arrive at 28.3 km. From Korniæ, we descend a steep slope to Sv.
