South-Dalmatia surroundings of Dubrovnik: Due to the rough geology and relatively small area of land between the sea and high mountain ridge of the Dinaric alps not many cycling trails are available in this region. However, around the idyllic located fishing village of Cavtat on the coast about 15km south of Dubrovnik three beautifully panoramic cycling trails are mapped. In the summer months it can be very warm at the heat of the day, so it is advisable to go cycling in the early morning or in the evening.
