Recreation

Opatija reveals its more active side whenever you feel like changing the pace. Follow the Lungomare, spend a day on the water or head into the green hinterland and towards the slopes of Učka. Within just a few kilometres, coastal scenery gives way to forest trails and mountain views, offering plenty of ways to make every day different.

Walking and running

The Lungomare connects Volosko with Opatija and other destinations along the riviera, turning a simple walk or morning run into an opportunity to discover the coastline. The sea accompanies you for almost the entire route, while you set the pace – from a leisurely stroll to a more active start to the day.

Hiking

When you feel like trading the coast for forests and mountain views, Učka Nature Park is an excellent choice. Marked hiking trails lead through a variety of landscapes to the mountain’s higher reaches, including Vojak, its highest peak.

Cycling

From leisurely rides through Opatija’s green hinterland to more demanding climbs and MTB trails across Učka and Ćićarija, the surrounding area offers routes for different fitness levels and ambitions. Explore the trails around Matulji and the forests of Kastav or head towards Učka, where more challenging sections reward you with views across Kvarner Bay and its islands.

Activities at sea

The sea is made for more than swimming. SUP, kayaking and windsurfing are among the activities available along the Opatija Riviera – ideal for days when you want to explore the coastline from the water and add a little more energy to your summer rhythm.
