EuroVeloroute 8 is very busy on the mainland between Zadar and Biograd and has hardly any bike paths. The light traffic on the island between Preko and Tkon offers a great alternative with stunning views and two ferry rides: Biograd - Tkon and Zadar - Preko 🚲🚢🤩

At the beginning there is a narrow, easy-to-ride concrete path, then a slightly more difficult but beautiful single trail back to the road.

Very striking when you look up ;-). Near a crossroads, whether you drive straight or turn, both paths continue down to Kukljiica. I just moved on...
