When on holiday, you want to relax and unwind from the stresses of everyday life. What’s a better way to do that than to take long walks? Fresh air, warm days and scents of springtime vegetation floating around in the air – a centuries-old recipe for getting back in touch with yourself.

Check out Camino Krk – about 150 km long circular trail around the island passing through spectacular natural scenery, by old castles and churches, small medieval towns and beautiful beaches.

Hit the biking trails and explore olive groves, stone landscapes and forest areas of the Island of Krk. Due to the abundance of various trails on the island (virtually hundreds of kilometres ranging from town to town and intersecting the island’s forests), you can explore the whole island through and through.

If you are more of a fan of hiking, a great experience is to hike around the southern part of the island (around Baška and Stara Baška). Tip: Climb the island’s highest peak (Obzova) or hike to The Plateau of the Moon. Apart from walking among fragrant pines and witnessing a landscape resembling the Moon, up high, you will be rewarded with magnificent views of the scattered islands on the Adriatic carpet of the deep blue sea.
