Jeep Safari and 1.4 km Zipline Over Čikola Canyon — Šibenik Adventure
Drive into Dalmatia’s karst interior, explore the Cetina region by jeep, then launch across a 1.4 km zipline above Čikola canyon. This full-day excursion blends off-road discovery with a sustained adrenaline run and local geological context.
The Experience
Before You Go
Wear grippy, closed-toe shoes
Jeep tracks and short canyon approaches are rocky and uneven—trail runners or hiking shoes reduce slips.
Hydrate and pack snacks
A full-day tour with moderate exertion means bring at least 1–2 liters of water and energy snacks.
Sun protection is crucial
Exposed canyon rims and open jeep time mean sunglasses, hat, and SPF will keep you comfortable.
Follow the zipline briefing exactly
Harness fit and braking instructions are non-negotiable—listen closely to guides for safety and best line technique.
