Premužić trail 30.05.-01.06.2026. - REFERENCE
Premužić trail is certainly the most famous hiking trail in Croatia. It is considered a true masterpiece of construction, because it was built in stone - drywall, and is laid out in such a way that it takes us in a very simple way to the harshest and most karst parts of northern Velebit - Hajdučka and Rožanska hips, which are the most attractive part of the trail, as well as northern Velebit in general. This unusual karst empire is a group containing about 50 rocky peaks over 1600 m high, which attract numerous visitors with their shapes. The trail stretches along the ridge of the mountain from Zavižan to Baška Oštarije in central Velebit, and is about 50 km long. The trail has no difficult climbs, so it is suitable for visitors not used to hiking, but it should be remembered that it is still three days walking 16-18 km.
itinerary
FIRST DAY (STATED - ALAN)
We depart from Zagreb at 7:00 a.m. and with one stop around 10:00 a.m. we arrive at the parking lot in Zavižan. To begin with, we go to the Vučjak peak (right above the mountain lodge), and after that we embark on a three-day adventure called "Premužić trail". By the beginning of the trail it takes about 20 minutes walk. This first part of the trail passes through the Northern Velebit National Park and through its most attractive part, Hajdučke and Rožanske hips. There is also Rossi's shelter, a building remarkably integrated into the environment. At the end we will stop by Alančić, the peak near Alan. From there, we are still less than an hour away from our inn, the shepherd's dwellings on Alan (http://pastirski-stanovi.np-sjeverni-velebit.hr/hr/ ).In the mountain lodge Alan can arrange dinner (something "on a spoon"), as well as breakfast.
NOTE: It is not necessary to carry a large backpack and a lot of things with you. Everything can be left in the van that will be our logistical support all the way.
SECOND DAY (ALAN - SKORPOVAC)
Getting up and having breakfast. At 8:30 we head towards Skorpovec, which is the end point of our day. A good part of the trail goes through the forest, but there are also open parts, so we will have a lot of views of the sea and the islands. On Skorpovec we will be greeted by a van and taken to a hostel in Baška Oštarije where we will spend the night. At the hostel we will arrange dinner and breakfast for the next day, so we have no worries about eating. There is also a kitchen in the hostel that we can use if anyone wants. After dinner, whatever you want. Going to sleep or having a little more time together.

THIRD DAY (SKORPOVAC - BAŠKE OŠTARI)
Getting up and having breakfast. At 8:30 a.m., the van takes us back to Skorpovec, from where we start on the last section of the Premužić trail. In the early afternoon we reach Baška Oštarije, and after rest and lunch, we depart for Zagreb. Return to Zagreb is scheduled in the early evening.
