Documentation and impressions of the bicycle trip around the world from Germany to Asia. This episode is about bikepacking cycling in Croatia. I started in Rijeka and took the Euro Velo 8 cycle path to near Zadar. I met other cyclists from Colombia (@Roodada) and we traveled together for three days. Visited cities and tasted traditional food. It was a great part of my journey.

Hallo Gernot, Kroatien ist sehr schön, vielen Dank für die tollen Bilder. Und das Du wieder ein paar Leute unterwegs getroffen hast mit denen Du ein wenig zusammen gefahren bist macht das ganze noch besser, es ist großartig
Es ist eine Qual auf Kalkstein – Geröll zu schlafen! Das weiß ich aus Erfahrung.
Nice one ☝🏻 😊
Finally a new episode 🎉
Extremely delightful insights from your journey. Keep going and ride safe!
Can you camp in Croatia legally on private land?
Echt cool, dass du immer wieder auf Leute triffst 🙂 Schöne Aufnahmen auf jeden Fall!
Wieso hast du dich dazu entschieden die Videos auf Englisch zu machen? Viele liebe Grüße
Schöne Bilder!
