The first 3 nights we will spend in an idyllic 3-star hotel near Novigrad na Dobri, then spend one night at Alan Mountain Hut and finally transfer to another small hotel or pension on the coast near the city of Zadar. Each hotel room includes its own bathroom and shower, air conditioning, free Wi-Fi and TV.
While staying at the hotels, every day you will have a buffet breakfast and a local dinner menu at the hotel. For lunch, most days we will stop at a local restaurant. For lunch, most days we will stop at a local restaurant. When our trip takes us too far away from the restaurants, or if you prefer to bring lunch with you, you can order a lunch package for (usually) 10€/package at the hotel. Besides, we will make sure to stop at local stores to stock up on snacks.
Staying at the mountain hut: There we will also enjoy dinner and breakfast, which will be good-sized, simple mountain meals. We will take a lunch package for the first day and lots of snacks for the second day on the Velebit with us. For the overnight stay at the hut, you will need to bring a light sleeping bag with you (extra blankets are, for hygienic reasons, not available). You will receive more details about this in your little equipment list after you’ve booked the trip.
A pick-up at the Zagreb or Rijeka Airport is included in the prices. Please ask us for pick-ups at Pula, Zadar or Split Airport, which we will provide for a surcharge. The standard drop-off location is Zadar Airport, but we can arrange a place more suitable for your travel plans, if you wish (e.g. Rijeka/Zagreb).
You can, of course, arrive in your own vehicle and either take it down to Northern Dalmatia with you, or we drop you off, where you parked your car for the week.
Arrival time: If you arrive by flight, please arrange to arrive at the airport before 4pm on our first day, if possible.
Group size: Usually, the group will consist of 6 to 8 guests plus one guide. The minimal group size is 4 guests. If you book a trip, but the minimal group size is not reached by a few weeks before departure, you will receive a full refund.
Minimum age: Children from 10 years on are welcome to come.
Fitness & experience level: Moderate level of personal fitness required. All day trips can and will be adjusted to the fitness level of the group. We do not expect you to come in athlete-like shape. As long as you are generally motivated for hiking in mountain environments, your guide make the trip work for you. After the initial booking, we will check in with you as to your physical shape, health condition and special food diet.
Our guides speak English and Croatian as well as German or Swedish. If you would prefer a German- or Swedish-speaking guide, please contact us and we will see, who is available for your travel dates. However, please note that the entire group will likely be international and the common language spoken will therefore be English.
After booking your trip, we will send you a detailed list of personal items you will need to bring along with you – like hiking shoes or boots, backpack. We will also answer question like “Do I need hiking poles?” there.
Departure Dates: If you would like to book this trip on a different date than available online, please contact us directly, since we may be able to shift dates around.
