Istria is the large Adriatic peninsula situated in the northwest of Croatia, a region with an ancient history, stunning coastline, rolling countryside with medieval hilltop towns and villages.

For those looking to explore this beautiful countryside at your own pace we have an gentle off-road self guided option.

We book all your accommodation, transfer your luggage and then provide you with route notes and itinerary for you to do the trails ‘unguided’. Just select the ‘Skedaddle Self-Guided /SG’ booking codes and add your preferred start date on the booking form. Trips start preferably on Saturdays with the minimum of two people.

The riding here is ideal for the regular cyclist, those relatively new to mountain biking or for those looking for some cross country off road riding and to explore a hidden corner of Europe.

Our start point for this self guided tour is the village of Klostar, situated near the dramatic Lim fjord and provides an excellent introduction to the warm Croatian hospitality. From Klostar, our route heads inland through vineyards to the beautiful small town of Roc before moving on to Buzet in the heart of Istria's truffle country.

From Buzet we follow a trail through the very heart of Istria to Motovun, another beautiful old town. From here we follow Parenzana (the old railway road) to the Gornja Bujstina region .
