From Zero to Hero starts where the Adriatic meets Makarska, taking you from sea level to 1,762 metres above the coast and back again. The 62.3 km road cycling route combines a long, physically demanding ascent with an equally rewarding descent through the dramatic landscape of Biokovo.

The climb takes you away from the coast and deep into the Biokovo mountain range, with the landscape changing as you gain altitude. The higher you go, the wider the views become, with the Adriatic, Makarska Riviera and surrounding islands stretching out below.

At 1,762 metres, the route reaches one of the highest points accessible by road in this part of Croatia before turning back towards the coast. The descent brings a completely different rhythm, but demands just as much focus as the climb. With 1,792 metres of total elevation gain and, this is a serious ride for experienced road cyclists looking for a memorable mountain challenge.
