Description of MTB route:

The starting point of the route is the port in Split city. From the port proceed to the east along the coast to Stobreč. Pass the bridge over Žrnovnica river and proceed to Srinjine. In Srinjine at the crossroad turn right near the quarry. Follow the steep and rocky carriageway above the quarry. In few turns the carriageway leads to the ridge of Perun hill. Around 150 meters from Sveti Jure chapel turn right from the carriageway and walk to the chapel.  From Sveti Jure chapel starts the hiking trail to Križ peak. It takes 10 minutes to the peak.
