Also in this Krk bike tour, I tried the traffic on the main roads to avoid as much as possible.

The bike tour starts just outside the town of Krk in a convenient, free parking. As in the height profile shown is very much uphill and downhill. So the ideal bike lap for a persistent interval training.

The first station of this bike is Glavotok. Apart from a small bay with a lighthouse and a campground where there is not much. But it's worth it anyway, because that is the view over the ocean is especially beautiful. Furthermore, there are Glavotok some lonely spot for sunbathing. The climb to Milohnic return is something challenging. Unfortunately, I could not see the road for Porat, so I was biked on the State highway 104 after Malinska. Over hilly terrain, the bike went on to Soline. In Soline there is even one of the few sandy beaches on Krk. The section of this cycling tour of Soline to Dobrinj is the most demanding of the whole krk bike tour. The slope begins at the coast at Soline and ends at almost 300 meters in Dobrinj. Due back the lovely old town and the good prospect of Dobrinj Soline after a break in Dobrinj is highly recommended. On the last kilometer it back to krk it goes almost always slightly downhill.

As with other cycling tours on Krk one is from annoying winds through shrubs and small trees on either side of the street mostly very well protected.

The Croatian island of Krk is situated near the city of Rijeka in the Kvarner Bay. Krk is the northernmost island in the Mediterranean and the second largest island in the Adriatic Sea. A large bridge links Krk since 1980 with the Croatian mainland. Approximately 18,000 inhabitants live on Krk. Due to its proximity to Austria, southern Germany, Italy, Hungary, the Czech Republic and Romania, tourism is the main industry on the Croatian island of Krk. At Krk you can carry almost all water sports and there are also many hiking trails and some interesting cycling tours. Between tours you can relax on the beach in the sun while lying down nicely after a strenuous day for the next cycling tour again very good regeneration. Most beaches on Krk consist of small rounded pebbles. Therefore, even the sea water near the beach is very clean and has a beautiful deep blue colour. One of the few sandy beaches is located slightly northeast of the Bay of Soline or Cizici. The cycling and mountain biking is possible on Krk because of the good climate, from late March to late October. The largest cities are on Krk: Krk, Baska, Malinska, Njivice, Omisalj, Punat, Baska Stara and Vrbnik.

Krk is the city in which there is also the administration of the island of Krk. Particularly beautiful is the port of Krk with the beautiful square in the old town of Krk. Many simple pizzerias, cafes and shops enliven the square at the port. A romantic walk through the old, narrow, cobbled streets in the old town of Krk is also highly recommended. The town of Krk is also a good starting point for cycling on Krk.
Punat is one of the oldest resorts and is located on the west coast of Krk, only a few miles south of the town of Krk. Punat is well known for its large marina with over 1000 berths. Also, a small shipyard is located in Punta. Leisure activities in Punat: fishing, boat tours, nude, fitness, inline skating, jet skiing, karting, mini golf, boat rentals, mountain biking, Nordic walking, cycling, horse riding, sauna, swimming, sailing, surfing, surfing lessons, diving, diving school , tennis, pedal boats, hiking, waterskiing, and a visit to the outlying island worth visiting the Franciscan monastery.

Dobrinj is a small town in the northeastern part of Krk. The city Dobrinj is located a few kilometers from the coast to about 200 meters. This one has in Dobrinj a fabulous view of the northeastern part of Krk and the Croatian mainland. A particularly good vantage point is located in the Gothic stone church of St. Stephen. Also very nice is the quiet, sheltered main square of Dobrinj. Many old houses, narrow alleys and old parts of the walls from the times in which Dobrinj was a castle that exude a sense of calm and serenity. It almost seems as if time stood still.

Malinska is situated on the west coast of Krk approximately 15 kilometers after the bridge from the mainland to the island of Krk in Croatia leads. The wooded cove with lots of shady places on the beach, sandy beaches, a clean, blue sea and over 2,000 hours of sunshine Malinska make it a sought-after holiday destination. Since Malinska is situated on the west side of the town of Krk is not as susceptible to wind compared to the Bora, like other cities on Krk. Leisure activities in Malinska: Hiking, tennis, diving, fishing, boating, water skiing and many cultural events. In addition to many restaurants and bars which are served in traditional, European cuisine, there are also several restaurants offering the additional typical Croatian cuisine - also special fish dishes.
