Description


Unspoilt nature, enchanting landscapes, great bends and even more beautiful gravel roads... Add to this a stopover on the Adriatic Sea, delicious food and hospitable people and you have a dream trip for enduro travellers. From the starting point near Graz (A), we travel via Slovenia and Croatia to Bosnia & Herzegovina. There the enduro fun begins, which takes us on to Montenegro, Albania and via Montenegro back to Bosnia. The end of the journey is then back near Graz in Austria.

Tour dates: From/to Graz approx. 2,250 km, from/to Banja Luka (BiH) approx. 50 % unpaved roads. Difficulty level: medium to difficult, not suitable for enduro beginners.

Tour characteristics
The tour is suitable for all those riders who have already gained some experience on narrow, winding gravel roads and dirt tracks and who have good control of their touring enduro off the road. All sizes of touring enduros are welcome on this tour. The use of at least all-round tyres suitable for road and off-road use is a prerequisite; especially in wet conditions, clearly off-road tyres (TKC 80, K 60 Scout) are of enormous advantage. This trip is not suitable for road bikes and enduros with purely asphalt tyres! It would be possible to take a passenger on the motorbike, but this is not recommended.

The rest of the day will be spent in the Savnik area, in the middle of the national park, we will again spend the night in typical accommodation.

Day 5: Savnik - Theth (ALB)

Today we pass the capital Podgorica on our way to Albania. The country covers about 2300 hectares of wild mountain landscapes, which are hardly known to "normal tourists". The first part of the Teth Pass is asphalted and leads over breathtaking landscapes up to an altitude of 2,600 metres. On the other side, there are no more asphalt roads and the landscape appears in a completely different light. We drive all the way down the slope deep into the valley and in the evening we are happy to find a simple but clean accommodation with friendly hosts.
