In the hinterland of Labin

On the Istrian peninsula, this 13 km long route leads through hilly landscapes near the east coast. It winds and has bumpy sections through Croatia's maritime vegetation.

The starting point of the route is near the lively town of Labin. You reach Kranjci and continue to follow a narrow tarmac road uphill through the forest. The gravel road begins at Gora Glusici. A small section leads past isolated houses on a dusty track. After that, gravel and ground alternate with asphalt. The narrow, uneven track is partly bordered by stone walls. There are some ruins and typical local huts along the route. You continue uphill and reach beautiful viewpoints on the peaks. The last part is slightly downhill. The fabulous views extend over the wide meadows to the sea and the offshore island of Ces. After an antenna mast, the track leads onto a road near the village of Skitaca. The end point of the tour. 

From here you can reach the wonderful viewpoint Vidikovac or many of the small, beautiful bathing bays along the coast via a winding, narrow tarmac road with a constant sea view.
