Camino Vinodol Stage 4: Bribir - Tribalj
Camino Vinodol Stage 4: Bribir - Tribalj
Camino Vinodol is part of the Camino Croatia network, opened in spring 2026. The debt is just over 90km and is divided into 5 stages. It is the route from Senj to Jadranovo, where the sea, karst and picturesque hinterland alternate, lots of vineyards and forests, coastal towns, old towns and traces of rich history.
The story begins in Senj, under the fortress Nehaj, and continues through the hinterland towards the Krmpotae and the church of St. Peter. Jacob.
One of the most beautiful places is the old town of Ledenice, with one of the lookouts, which belongs to the set of lookouts "The Eyes of Vinodola". Among the remains of stone walls, it is easy to imagine the former life of this fortified place, and the views towards the sea are an additional reason to pause here and enjoy the view.
There are also Novi Vinodolski, its old streets and Frankopan heritage, so Bribir, with its old core and tower Turan, the remaining part of the former castle.
In the Vinodol area there is a preserved Drivenička gradina. Situated on a hill above the valley, with its towers and walls, it is one of those points that you want to visit, look up close and hear something about them. Then there is the Tribaljsko Lake, for a slightly different landscape and a break by the lake overlooking the Drivenička gradina. Then walk along the river Dubračina to Crikvenica - simply perfect.
Through Crikvenica and Dramalj, the road returns to the coast, promenades along the sea and views of Krk, and ends in Jadranovo, which was once called Sv. Jakov, in the case of the tuner and the ‘Fishers’ House’ in Perčin Bay. It was here that residents hunted tuna for centuries and pulled fishing nets. The house, once built for the needs of tuna vessels and renovated back in 1878, is today a small exhibition space of the Museum of the City of Crikvenica, which preserves the memory of fishermen and life related to the sea.
itinerary
We start from Zagreb at 6:00, and with one stop and around 8:30 we arrive in Bribir from where today's stage starts, fourth in a row. At first a little on the road, to the church of Sv. Martina, then on the gravel road, and finally on the hiking trail, to Grižana. The first 5km is mostly an ascent, and further the trail straightens and/or descends, and after Grižana we mostly go downhill. We pass through Tribalj and come to Lake Tribalj. The Drivenička Fortress is another hour's walk, but there can also be a vehicle, so we will decide on the spot. We go to Crikvenica for dinner. Return to Zagreb is scheduled in the evening.
