Overview of mountain biking route:

The point to point mountain bike route Molunat – Prevlaka is situated in Dubrovnik area close to the most southern point of Croatia. Most of the trail is placed on the rocky carriageway along Adriatic coast, from Molunat village to cape Oštro. The route is fast and easy with few short ups and downs. At cape Oštro there are former military tower & many other military buildings. Now the area of cape Oštro is opened for tourists and military buildings are not in function any more.




 
Getting there: Europe, Croatia, Dubrovnik, Grude, Molunat.

Description of MTB route:

The starting point of the point to point route is Molunat village. From the bay proceed on the paved road to the north course. The ascent leads to the labeled crossroad to Radovčići village. Keep straight at the crossroad and after about 200 meters turn right on the wide carriageway. Proceed to the southeast along the Adriatic coast. There are few ups and downs on the rocky carriageway. Keep right on all crosses. The long carriageway section ends with a descent to the entry of Park Prevlaka. From the entry the paved road leads to the tower at cape Oštro. From cape Oštro you can get a nice view on Montenegro coast, Boka Kotorska bay, Lovćen and Orjen mountains. At the cape there are few crossroads and most of them leads to some of military buildings. I rode back on the paved road Prevlaka – Vitaljina – Đurinići – Molunat. As the option this section is included in GPS tracklog too. For more details check above interactive Map and below Gallery & Notes of the route.
