Things to do

Motorcycle Ride: the Coastal Road and Konavle Loop

A rider’s half-day loop out of Dubrovnik — the D8 coastal road over the pass to Cavtat, the back lanes of the Konavle valley and the return over Gruda, mixing sea cliffs, switchbacks and empty valley roads.

Dubrovnik

Motorcycle Ride: the Length of Pelješac

Seventy kilometres of peninsula road from the bridge to Orebić — salt pans, wine country, the channel coast and the ferry view of Korčula in one ride.

Pelješac

Motorcycle Ride: The Konavle Loop and Adriatic Highway

A short, curvy coastal-plain loop from Cavtat over the Konavle valley and back along the Adriatic Highway (D8) — thirty to sixty kilometres of road built for two wheels.

Cavtat

Camping the Konavle Coast: the Molunat Auto Camps

Cavtat itself has no campsite — the region’s camping lives 20 km south in Molunat, a small fishing village at the tip of the Konavle coast, where simple auto camps sit right on the shore.

Cavtat

Combine Maglaj with nearby Doboj for a northern Bosnia fortress day

A two-fortress day in the Bosna valley — Maglaj’s Gradina and Doboj’s Gradina fortress, 25 km apart on the valley road, paired for a full northern Bosnia heritage day.

Maglaj

Ride the Tara Canyon Road to Crna Poda and Dobrilovina

A scenic ride along the Tara canyon road from the Đurđevića Tara Bridge downstream to the Crna Poda black-pine reserve and Dobrilovina Monastery — forest, gorge and valley read from the saddle, on narrow mountain roads with limited fuel and coverage.

Tara Canyon & Đurđevića Tara

Ride the Piva Canyon Road to Mratinje and Šćepan Polje

Ride the Piva canyon road from Plužine toward Mratinje and Šćepan Polje — the dramatic route cut into the rock and tunnelled through it, threading the gorge above the reservoir. A drive for patient, lawful riding in clear conditions, never for racing or roadside photo stops.

Plužine & Piva

Ride the Selkirk Loop to Creston & Back

Bonners Ferry & the Kootenai
