WHAT ARE WE PLANNING?
There’s nothing more beautiful than the blue Adriatic in spring, when everything comes to life. This time, we’re planning a lovely tour around exotic Korčula, exploring its hidden beaches and narrow old-town streets. On the second day, our host will be the Pelješac Peninsula and the peak of Sveti Ilija, offering breathtaking views of Mljet, Korčula, and a large part of the coastline.

PROGRAM

April 3–4, 2026

NOVI SAD – BELGRADE – ČAVIĆA BAY – PLAVINA BAY – KORČULA
Route length: 10 km
Elevation gain: 200 m
Difficulty: MODERATE

Departure from NOVI SAD and BELGRADE on April 3 in the evening hours (exact time and meeting point will be announced a few days before departure), followed by a comfortable drive to Korčula.

In the early morning hours, we arrive on Korčula, where a gentle hike awaits us along some of the island’s most hidden coves. Part of the trail follows asphalt, while another part runs along the coastline from bay to bay, choosing the one that feels just perfect for us — perhaps a spot for a short meditation or even a quick dip in the sea if the weather allows.

After the hike, we head to the town of Korčula for a stroll through its old town center, where you’ll feel as if you’ve stepped into a song by Oliver Dragojević, the legendary musician who comes from this region.

Afterwards, we head to our accommodation for a well-deserved rest.
