Descent from Sveti Nikola to Sveta Nedjelja was for a while on my bucket list, but for this holiday I finally managed to ride it. I started my ride in Starigrad. Since I only brought my e-mtb plan was to use as shortest and steepest uphill to st. Nikola peak. St. Nikola peak offers great view which follows you all the way during descents. You can see steep vineyards above see.

This summer we were staying in town Hvar so I found some local trails that seemed interesting for quick morning ride. Above Hvar there is famous fortress “Fortica”, local people also call it “Španjola”. But for my ride I chose to ride on higher positioned Fort Napoleon. Since I brought e-mtb with me I decided to go uphill with some trail that seemed rideable. It showed later that it could be ridden with e-mtb. Uphill ride was also inspection of trail condition since I also planned to go downhill with the same trail, so I convinced myself that the trail is maintained.

For a weekend I camped with my family in our new tent which we bought for new camping adventures. We stayed in camp Slatina near Martinšćica. I haven’t had any gpx prepared for ride, so night before I looked on map for some local trails hoping to come out with something interesting. My plan was to visit Lubenice from Martinšćica and then descent back, trying to collect as biggest possible percentage of trails avoiding asphalt road as much as possible.
