Croatia’s Cutting Edge Tourism Project Welcome Continued Its Journey South On May 28 2011, Reaching The Picturesque Hamlet Of Lombarda On The Island Of Korcula After A Mix Of Canoe And Bike Ride From Loviste On The Western End Of The Peljesac Spur
The aim of the project is to focus on Croatia’s natural beauty, rich cultural heritage and wide ranging tourism offer by travelling the length of the country using numerous adventure sports methods of transport along a winding route which spells out the word “Welcome.” The route will be apparent from Google Earth, allowing Croatian tourism to claim the title of the world’s biggest welcome.
Leaving the protected bay at Loviste, the team headed to the island of Korcula by canoe, running into breezy conditions in the open sea and, while they were forced to continue with caution at certain times it didn’t stop them from socialising with diverse sea turtles whom they encountered on the route.
After a short swim, the team paddled to the village of Babina on the northern coast, where it was decided to modify the upcoming route after locals informed them about ways to a massive wooded canyon.
Switching to bikes, the Welcome team made their way to the unknown Kocje nature park, a natural phenomenon not faced anywhere else on the trip. Kocje is a powerful collection of limestone rock, as high as 20m in parts, hidden by dense vegetation. The effect is a natural warren of tunnels, cracks and caves with much of the rock covered in green moss.
Kojce has been announced a specifically protected reserve of forest foliage, and some archaeologists believe it was inhabited by primeval man. A rather more engaging idea has been put forward by an Italian professor of mathematics and physics which places Kojce as the only entry point on the planet for positive lines for magnetic force from Space.
Taking to the primary road, the Welcome team continued their journey, finally arriving in the striking ancient walled town of Korcula, one of the finest saved stone cities on the coast. One of the main traveller attractions in that town is that it is allegedly the birthplace of the great explorer Marco Polo, who would no doubt have endorsed the initiative of the Welcome Project.
Cycling through the town’s streets, the team then headed for their last destination for the day, the small village 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” isn’t as clear as the rest, but still awfully meaningful.
With just the letter “E” to go, the project is entering its last stages, with arrival in Dubrovnik lined up for June 3. The final stages include travelling along the Peljesac Promontory to Ston, before backtracking through the Bosnian Riviera (the one 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 canoe effort to Dubrovnik, as reported tagza.com.
