For a holiday that combines drifting in through Croatian islands and getting in shape, nothing beats a cycling cruise. The good thing about Croatia’s islands is that there are flat parts and more mountainous parts so there are cycling routes for all levels of physical fitness.
I just came across a wonderful article that recounts a seven-day cycling cruise that began and ended in Split. Along the way, the small group visited Brac Island, Hvar, Korcula and the Peljesac peninsula. Cycling along country trails, through pine forests, vineyards and lavender fields was easy enough but the fitter members also managed a spectacular cycle up a steep peak on Brac Island. Naturally, there was plenty of good food and local wine at the end of the day and I’m sure, unforgettable memories at the end of it all.
