Biokovo Road in Biokovo Nature Park

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

It's a fantastic climb, worth every drop of sweat. But it's not for the faint of heart as the road is narrow and far from optimal conditions.

Biokovo Skywalk

Highlight • Viewpoint

Cars are only allowed into the national park in columns of 25 every hour on the hour. Experience shows that it takes 30-40 minutes to get to the Skywalk and they usually only stay there for 15-20 minutes. So it's best to visit on the hour, when you're usually alone. If you're driving up by car, maybe take a short walk first until the crowds have gone. Buy tickets online in advance and pay attention to the time slots if you're arriving by car.

The restaurant opens at 8.

Sv. Jure Ascent Road

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

Survival Tips:
-start early, directly when the park opens. The photos do not show the true car density!
-Tyres: at least 28 - better 32 mm or gravel bike. The descent is a challenge: grooves, cracks, bad potholes; Distraction through grandiose views and shadows can quickly overlook danger spots like kl. Sandy or gravel spots, horse droppings that suddenly appear in curves....
-well-maintained disc brakes with decent "reserve". On the descent, they are practically in continuous operation.
- Attention oncoming traffic 😱! The road is mostly single lane. The many cars, SUVs, minibuses are 'let loose' in the convoy and try, according to the 'journey to Jerusalem' principle, to get up so fast and so far that departing cars block the way... Then everyone has to agree that who resets until the next bulge. Conclusion: Spectacular - BUT dangerous meeting of different "motivations"! Take good care!

August 22, 2021,Kroatien - Makarska - Sv. Jure
Sv. Jure is the highest mountain in the Biokovo National Park and a real chunk! The first part of the ascent leads with moderate serpentines through the forest to the tree line. Then steep ramps and moderate inclines alternate on the ascent, which is largely not artificially terraced, and at the end it demands everything again - for this it …
