Split to Hvar

Distance: 46 km. Total elevation: 650 m

Ferry to Stari Grad on the island of Hvar, then a figure 8 route across the length of the island, finishing in the beautiful 13th century port town of Hvar.

Stunning day - followed the road that hugged the coastline from Stari Grad to the pretty towns of Otok and Jesla right on the water. Then past olive groves, grape vines and shaded pine plantations. Then a superb 10km climb with a steady 6% gradient but with a kicker at the end.

A swim off the beach (warmest water yet), then pizza & red wine was a fitting end to an excellent day.Lue lisää
