You cycle regularly, keep fit and enjoy challenging yourself alongside others. Now take that energy from the studio to a week on the trails of Dalmatia.
Coastal scenery, climbs and gravel beneath your tyres. A trainer to guide you and a small group to share the experience. Villa Mare in Grebaštica is your home between rides.
You may already know Takisha from the gym. Here, she guides you from getting to know your rental bike to the group's final ride.
With vocational qualifications in sport and fitness management and as a rehabilitation exercise instructor, she brings many years of experience in training and movement. In Dalmatia, she combines this with her love of being active together.

Out of the studio. Into the season.
Build endurance with a view. A gentle introduction to gravel, focused training and your first big ride of the season, together.
Wide-open views. More reasons to keep riding.From our own explorations
A sample week
Outdoors every day. A little further each day.
Routes, intensity and the order of activities are adapted to the group and the weather. This itinerary gives you a feel for the week.
01
Arrive & settle in
Arrive in Grebaštica, settle into your apartment and meet the group. We talk through the week and get ready for the rides ahead.
02
Get comfortable on gravel
Get to know your bike, practise braking and cornering, and find your balance. We start gently and build confidence on loose surfaces before progressing to more demanding rides.
03
Find your rhythm
A group ride with your first climbs. Kisha manages the pace, effort and breaks so the group stays together.
04
Endurance with a view
More time in the saddle, new routes and wide-open views. The ride is tailored to the group's ability and how everyone feels that day.
05
Active recovery
A deliberately lighter session or a hike when conditions allow. Time to catch your breath and enjoy the sea.
06
Go a little further
Put your new skills into practice on the next ride. Build confidence together on climbs, descents and changing terrain.
07
Your shared finale
A special final ride chosen to suit the group. In the evening, share the memories you have made throughout the week.
08
Head home – or stay longer
After seven nights, it is time to head home. Or extend your stay, subject to availability.
Is this for you?
Bring your enthusiasm. Find your rhythm together.
The camp is for fit adults who cycle regularly and already handle a bicycle confidently. Our first camps are particularly aimed at members of Kisha's gym.
No previous gravel experience required. We start with the basics and increase the challenge gradually. The pace and routes reflect actual riding skills, not just fitness in the studio.
Adult companions are welcome by arrangement, even if they do not take part in training. We do not offer childcare; the camp week is designed for adults.
Looking forward to a week together
Explore our riding region
Sea views are part of the ride.
Grebaštica, the area around Rogoznica, Murter and St Anthony's Channel are part of our route planning. The final selection is tailored to your group.

Extra nights, subject to availability
You book your own flights and bring food for the rides. You will receive the full price and a clear list of included services before booking. Prices are currently available on request.
Not ready to head home?
Your legs have done the work. Let your mind unwind.
Extend your stay, subject to availability. A few more days at the beach, a hike or a trip to Šibenik: our personal recommendations are ready for you.
You should be fit, cycle regularly and handle a bicycle confidently. Previous gravel experience is not essential. We begin with the basics and progress at a level suited to the group.
Can I come without my own bike?
Yes. We arrange rental bikes locally. We confirm the right bike, available sizes and cost before you book. E-mountain bike options can also be discussed individually.
What happens in bad weather?
We adapt the programme. When conditions allow, hikes or excursions may be an option, for example around Krka National Park. Thunderstorms, strong winds or unsuitable terrain are not a reason to switch to a more demanding outdoor activity. We do not have a dedicated indoor training room.
Can my partner come without joining the rides?
Adult companions are welcome by arrangement and subject to availability. They occupy a regular accommodation place. Services and pricing are agreed according to their participation.
Does a WhatsApp enquiry commit me to a booking?
Your enquiry is non-binding. We discuss dates, riding experience, bike requirements and accommodation. You then receive a specific offer with the price and included services. Only then do you decide whether to book.
See you in Dalmatia
This time, the sea view comes along for the ride.
Message Kisha with your preferred dates. She will talk through everything else with you personally.
