Croatia gives you a coastline made for riding, and the two programmes on this page show two quite different ways to enjoy it on two wheels. One is a structured road training camp in Dalmatia; the other is a gravel journey that crosses three countries before finishing on the Istrian coast.
The Spring Cycling Training Camp on the Makarska Riviera runs for 9 days and is based in Baška Voda, a small coastal town about an hour south of Split. It has run for 17 years, so you are joining a well-established camp rather than a first attempt. You stay at either Hotel Slavija 4*+ or Hotel Horizont 4*, both on half board. It suits riders who want to put in focused early-season miles somewhere warmer and more scenic than home.
The Parenzana Grand Tour is a six-day gravel holiday along the historic Parenzana railway trail. You start at the Italian border at Muggia, follow the Slovenian coast and ride past the clear waters of Istria to Poreč. It covers around 123 km of gravel, with riding averaging a relaxed 45 km and 450 m of climbing. That gentler rhythm will appeal if you want time to take in the landscape, the coast and the history of the old line, rather than chase training targets.
Prices on this page start from 389 EUR, for the Makarska Riviera training camp. Whether you want structured road training or an unhurried gravel ride, both options let you see a side of the Adriatic that is best experienced from the saddle.
Prices on this page start from 389 EUR, which is the starting price for the 9-day Spring Cycling Training Camp on the Makarska Riviera. Check the Parenzana Grand Tour listing for its own pricing.
