Epic Rides Rab

October 17, 2026

An island of diversity and pure cycling joy

It’s no coincidence that Epic Rides was born in a country boasting an incredible 1 244 islands. And when the time came to choose our second island for an Epic Rides event, following Krk, Rab quickly emerged as the natural favourite. On a relatively small area, this mid-sized Adriatic island offers a stunning variety of landscapes – from barren rocky plateaus to dense, almost rainforest-like woods.

 

Despite lacking high peaks, Rab delivers breathtaking panoramas. Its indented coastline and irregular shape make it perfect for exploration on two wheels – every turn reveals a new story, a new colour, a new scent. The charming old town of Rab, famous for its four iconic bell towers, is the ideal starting point for an adventure through Kalifront, a vast forest crisscrossed with gravel and dirt trails where deer, does, and mouflons often appear as unexpected companions. Then there’s Fruga, a small plateau facing the Velebit mountain range, and one of the most striking natural spots you can encounter in Croatia.

 

We spent days exploring every path and corner of the island to create a route that once again proves why cycling is one of the most rewarding ways to experience a destination.

 

Discover your homeland by bike.
