Both will take you through some of the most beautiful countrysides, interesting small towns and villages, where you can see firsthand the traditional, relaxed way of life of this part of the world.
If you decide to ride by yourself, we recommend sticking to one of the 6 marked routes. If you would prefer to join a group, several cycling clubs offer guided tours and all the equipment you might need.

Makarska Riviera
Cycling the Makarska Riviera
Makarska Riviera and its hinterland offer some incredible and contrasting scenery. Some parts are steep, rugged, and rocky, some are lush and tame. Bicycle routes will take you through all of them. Choose a challenging trail, filled with ascents and inclines, or ride leisurely through nature, depending on your preference and skill level.
Starting from Makarska, the most exciting route goes up the majestic mount Biokovo, right up to St. Jure peak, standing tall some 1700 meters above sea level and offering a panoramic view of the whole Riviera. This is a very demanding three-hour ride though, testing even the most experienced cyclists' stamina. Luckily, there are very interesting alternatives taking you along the foothills of Biokovo, along the shoreline, or through the gorgeous Biokovo Botanical Garden.
Hiking the Makarska Riviera
Similarly to the biking trails, the hiking routes will take you through some lovely nature and offer scenic vistas from the promontories along the way. Hiking the Makarska Riviera is a great way to spend a day outdoors in the fresh breeze, work on your fitness level and stay healthy. A wide variety of trails stretch all along the Riviera, and it would take quite a long Croatian vacation to thread them all.
If you prefer a more leisurely experience, perfect for a family trip, an easy trail looping around the St. Peter peninsula lets you enjoy the view of the city as well as the mighty Biokovo behind it. This route takes you through the public park - an inspiring place shaded by Mediterranean vegetation. Another undemanding yet beautifully scenic trail will lead you from Makarska harbor to Nugal, a beautiful pebbly beach where you can reward yourself with a refreshing swim after a 2-kilometer walk.
Should you seek out a challenge, though, trails ascending Mount Biokovo range from intermediate to very challenging, but reward the effort with some of the cleanest air, magnificent views, and a sense of accomplishment. The trails lead to famous Biokovo peaks such as St. Jure, Motika, Mali Šibenik, and Bukovac.
