Croatia’s Leading Edge Tourism Project Welcome Continued Its Journey South On May Twenty-Eight 2011, Reaching The Picturesque Town Of Lombarda On The Island Of Korcula After A Mixture Of Kayak And Bike Ride From Loviste On The Western Tip Of The Peljesac Promontory
The aim of the project is to highlight Croatia’s natural beauty, rich cultural heritage and wide ranging tourism offer by travelling the length of the country using numerous journey sports techniques of transportation along a winding route which spells out the word “Welcome.” The route will be visible from Google Earth, permitting Croatian tourism to claim the title of the planet’s largest welcome.
Leaving the protected bay at Loviste, the team headed to the island of Korcula by kayak, coming up against windy conditions in the open sea and, while they had to proceed carefully at certain times it did not hinder them from socialising with numerous sea turtles whom they came up against on the route.
After a short swim, the team paddled to the town of Babina on the north coast, where it was decided to modify the intended route after neighbors informed them about paths to a giant wooded ravine.
Changing to bikes, the Welcome team made their way to the little known Kocje nature park, a natural phenomenon not encountered anywhere else on the trip. Kocje is a powerful collection of limestone rock, as high as 20m in parts, concealed by dense vegetation. The effect is a natural warren of tunnels, cracks and caves with a lot of the rock covered in green moss.
Kojce has been declared a specifically protected reserve of forest vegetation, and some archaeologists believe it was inhabited by early man. A more fascinating theory has been put forward by an Italian professor of mathematics and physics which places Kojce as the only entry point in the world for positive lines for magnetic force from Space.
Taking to the key road, the Welcome team continued their journey, eventually arriving in the striking traditional walled town of Korcula, one of the best preserved stone cities on the coast. One of the key tourist attractions in that town is it’s supposedly the birthplace of the great explorer Marco Polo, who would no doubt have endorsed the initiative of the Welcome Project.
Cycling thru the town’s streets, the team then headed for their last destination for the day, the little town of Lumbarda, where they finished the route for the letter “M” in the “Welcome” message. Due to some diversions from the planned route, particularly on the island of Hvar, the letter “M” is not as clear as the rest, but still awfully understandable.
With just the letter “E” to go, the project is entering its last stages, with arrival in Dubrovnik scheduled for June three. The final stages include travelling along the Peljesac Headland to Ston, before backtracking thru the Bosnian Riviera (the single time the project leaves Croatia) to the border city of Metkovic, and then back to Peljesac and on to the island of Mljet before a last kayak effort to Dubrovnik, as reported tagza.com.
