During the summer months, do not forget to take enough water with your (at least 1.5 l) because there are no drinking water sources on this trail.
This circular hiking trail starts in Preko and continues towards the interior of the island. After 3.5 km the trail reaches the medieval fortress of St. Michael built in the 13th century. The fortress offers a magnificent vistas of the islands of the Zadar Archipelago and Zadar and its surrounding area.
The trail continues to a sign for Željina bay. What follows is a steep descend through the forest towards the bay. The vegetation here is very dense, so this part of the trail offers a completely different experience than the previous one. The end of this descent is really impressive because the beautiful Željina bay suddenly appears in front of you. The route returns the same way back to the cliff, but then takes a turn to the left to continue the circular walk. To cross one part of the trail a secured cable is provided. Then the trail follows a nice path to reach the fortress of St. Michael.
