Prvić island - Outdoors Croatia

Otok Prvić, najveći hrvatski nenaseljeni otok, stvarno je veličanstven. Iz Baške izgleda kao ogromna nepristupačna hrid. Na cijelu sjevernu i južnu stranu se ne može iskrcati zbog visokih litica, najviših koje sam vidio uz more. Na sjeverozapadu su predivne plaže, neke plaže su potpuno okružene liticama, neke su vrlo male, a par ih prelazi u mini špilje pa ima i hlada. Sa vrha Šipovca se pruža predivan pogled na kanal, litice koje se strmoglavo spuštaju 363m do mora i prostrane brežuljke Prvića prekrivene aromatičnim biljem i ubitačnim kamenjem.
Staza je dobro ucrtana u Garminovu kartu, barem onih 10% gdje se staza razaznaje od okoline. Teren je vrlo zahtjevan, nisam htio gaziti po raslinju zbog poskoka pa sam skakao po kamenju koje mi se svako toliko izvrtalo pod nogama. Zbog straha od poskoka sam skrenuo sa staze u kamenitu jarugu što inače izbjegavam jer iako staza na terenu jedva postoji, ako se nešto dogodi bolje je ostati na ruti ucrtanoj na karti. Tu sam svako toliko naišao na uginulu ovcu, vidio sam ih više mrtvih nego živih. Nastavljam kajakom oko otoka i vračam se u Bašku. Ukupno sam prešao 28km kajakom i 5km po otoku.
The island of Prvić, the largest uninhabited island in Croatia, is truly magnificent. From Baška it looks like a huge inaccessible rock. The whole north and south side cannot be disembarked because of the high cliffs, the highest I have seen by the sea. In the northwest there are beautiful beaches, some beaches are completely surrounded by cliffs, some are very small and a couple of them turn into mini caves so there is shade. From the top of Šipovac, there is a beautiful view of the canal, cliffs that descend steeply 363m to the sea and the spacious hills of Prvić covered with aromatic herbs and impossible stones.
The trail is well-plotted on Garmin map, at least those 10% where the trail is distinguishable from the surroundings. The terrain is very demanding, I didn't want to step on the vegetation because of the vipers, so I jumped on the rocks that twisted under my feet every now and then. In fear of vipers, I veered off the trail into a rocky ravine which I normally avoid because although the trail in the field barely exists, if something happens it is better to stay on the route drawn on the map. Every now and then I came across a dead sheep, I saw more of them dead than alive. I continued kayaking around the island and returned to Baška. I covered a total of 28km by kayak and 5km on the island.
