ROUTE STORY
The first hiking day begins in Preko, one of the best-known island towns on Ugljan.
From the very beginning, the route climbs toward Fortress of St. Michael (Tvrđava Sv. Mihovil) – one of the most scenic viewpoints in the area. From here, the landscape opens wide across the Zadar Archipelago, the mainland coastline and the surrounding Adriatic islands.
The route then continues across the island through olive groves, dry stone paths and scenic trails above the village of Kali, where sea views stay close almost the entire way.
Later in the stage, the trail descends toward the beautiful bays and beaches of Mala Sabuša and Velika Sabuša, before crossing the bridge toward Ždrelac, where the first day comes to a close.

ROUTE FLOW

Day two reveals a slightly wilder and more peaceful side of the archipelago. Pašman carries a more untouched island rhythm, where quiet trails, Mediterranean vegetation and open landscapes create a true outdoor escape.
