Day 2: Krk Island, approx. 45km/570 vertical metres by bike

Day 3: Krk Island – Rab Island, approx. 40 km/440 vertical metres by bike

You will start the day with a boat ride to Lopar in the north of the island of Rab. Here begins the bike tour via Supetarska Draga and Kampor to Rab with its four bell towers.

Your ship awaits you in Mandre, on the east coast of the island.

    Bicycles and Equipment

    21-speed-bike

    We rent comfortable  bikes in a variety of frame sizes to our guests derailleur gears and free-wheel.

    Electric bikes | E-bikes | Pedelecs

    With the Raleigh Dover Impulse 8 HS  (8-gear bike with free-wheel) every bike tour is a breeze! If you had few opportunities to cycle over the last weeks or if you are not sure concerning your fitness, but also with physical disabilities, every bike ride is a treat! The shiftable, low noise electric drive of our modern electric bike relieves you of some of the work and increases the pedal force up to 3 times ... So you can now book a bike tour together with cyclists who have different fitness levels. Acclivity can be handled easily.

    All Ebikes are fitted with panniers.

    Note: E-bikes are a great development, but should be - due to their driving characteristics (high weight + high speed) - booked only by very safe and experienced cyclists with a very good sense of balance. Not suitable are electric bikes for people who rarely ride a bicycle.
