Some friends & I had been saving up leave all year hoping that travel restrictions might be eased a little & we've kind of backed ourselves into a corner with not much year left & not many places to go. So the other day we ended up booking return flights to Croatia (Zadar) for a fortnight, & it's been up to me to figure out the route.
We'll be bikepacking with road bikes with chunkier tyres (~32mm) so hoping that's sufficient for the road surfaces/minimal gravel sections included. Going to try & wildcamp most of the time (though presence of bears is a bit scary) with the odd proper campsite/hotel if & when we find them.
Anyone toured Croatia before? Any route critique/Croatian experiences welcome!

My partner's Croatian, and mentioned it's not the bears you need to be worried about. It's more the spiders (most venomous in Europe) and snakes. Where you're going, apparently there's both.

This is what I have so far - Komoot.
