Walkers accepted and conquered the challenge on the “From the Spring to the Frankopans” trail
The activity “Nordic Walking Through the Historical Trails of Novi Vinodolski”, held as part of the FIT4NOVI event, completed its final spring edition, but FIT4NOVI continues with exciting programmes. The Tourist Board of the City of Novi Vinodolski, in collaboration with KŠR Gorovo and Nordic Walking Team Opatija, organised excellent guided Nordic walking routes along the “blue and green trails” over the past Saturdays — much to the delight of the many participants. The programme proved to be well-designed and perfectly timed.
After exploring a variety of trails around Novi and its surroundings, the final Saturday presented a special challenge — the “From the Spring to the Frankopans” trail, a perfect finale for a successful season. Walkers gathered in the centre of Povile and, after a warm-up session, set off on a moderately demanding 10.5 km route: Povile – Gradina Viewpoint – Old Town Ledenice – Žrnovnica – Povile. The 4.5-hour walk took them through diverse terrain — from uphill climbs to easier paths — and, guided by licensed Nordic walking and mountain guides, participants completed the trail with praise from the organisers.
This tour marked the end of one of FIT4NOVI’s spring activities, but judging by the strong interest, the walking programme is expected to continue in autumn with new routes and landscapes to discover. Organisers remind that FIT4NOVI will continue with exciting activities until early June, once again proving that Novi Vinodolski truly has something to offer for all lovers of healthy living and outdoor activity.
