Spend an exciting spring Saturday in Istria as the recreational bike ride for athletes, recreationists, and anyone looking for good fun out in nature returns in its new edition. Limes Bike Tour, organized by the Vrsar Tourist Board, is held on May 14 this year, and the 30-kilometer trail reveals many hidden beauties of the Lim Channel that feed the soul and body.
The cycling race starts at 10 am on the Vrsar waterfront. First, riders will pass through the Kontija forest, a well-known oasis of peace and quiet and a stunning natural environment ideal for hiking, day trips, recreational cycling, and outdoor recreation. After that, the tour continues through Kloštar, Vrh Lima, Krunčići, Medaki, Marasi, Gradina, and Bralići, before ending on the Vrsar waterfront so that all participants can uncover the specialties of the Lim Bay and charming surrounding places.
It is mandatory to stop at the lookout point on Crljenka, located on the slopes of the Lim Channel, where there is a beautiful view of the entire bay, making it an ideal spot for a short break and photos. The Limes Bike Tour stretches mainly on macadam roads, so the most suitable ride is on mountain bikes, although you can also ride trekking and electric bikes.
As part of the cycling race, in which everyone can register over 14 years of age, all participants will have a professional guide and escort and accompanying vehicle, and refreshments can be found in the Hunting House in the protected Kontija forest, where they will be provided with lunch.
Limes Bike Tour is one of the many events held throughout Istria throughout the year, continuously enriching the tourist offer and positioning Vrsar as an unavoidable destination of top experiences.
Those interested and eager to participate in the recreational bike ride can apply on the Vrsar waterfront on the day of the bike ride – Saturday, May 14, 2022, from 8:30 to 9:45. The entry fee is 50 kuna per person.
