195-Omiš evergreen

The city of Omiš is located where the doors are made up of mountains, and where the Cetina River flows into the Adriatic. Although its origins date back to ancient times, the most turbulent part of its history is related to the Middle Ages. Back then, believe it or not, this town was ruled by pirates! With the Kačić family at its head, the famous Omiš pirates were the fear and anxiety of the entire Adriatic during the 12th and 13th centuries. These invincible robbers remained in power until the 15th century when they were finally defeated by the Venetian Republic. Under Venetian rule, the town took on its present appearance, although its famous pirate history is still felt in the air. Should you decide to explore the town, either on expeditions to fortresses on high mountains or along the Cetina River, Omiš will always be sure to awaken that special adventurous, pirate spirit in you!

Technical characteristics

With a length of 42 km and an altitude difference of 613 m above sea level, this trail takes you through the fascinating canyon of the Cetina River with a number of incredible views. It starts with a 4.7 km climb to Gata with an average gradient of 5.4% on a wide road with a number of hairpin bends. The entire trail is ridden on asphalted roads that are busy at the beginning, but after Gata the traffic decreases significantly. The trail is suitable for all types of cycling. The descent towards the Pavića most bridge has no particularly dangerous sections, but you should be careful on the hairpin bends. The second and last climb that begins along the Cetina River, is 3.8 km long with an average gradient of 4.3% offering a number of breath-taking views. The descent should be ridden carefully because of the very large number of hairpin bends. The rest of the trail is ridden on a straight road by the river until the starting point in Omiš. This trail can be ridden on a road, trekking or gravel bike, without the need for a compact crankset as there are no steep sections.
