The public bicycle system in the Drniš area was established within the project “Improvement of Tourism Development and Preservation of Cultural and Natural Heritage,” which is valued at approximately 1,879,000 euros and is co-financed by 85 percent from EU funds.

“This is the first public bicycle system in the Dalmatian hinterland, which is increasingly profiling itself as a cycling tourism destination. Drniš thus demonstrates its investment in sustainability and environmental protection, along with the application of modern technologies and adherence to European trends,” the statement emphasized.

It is added that the goal is for the Adriatic hinterland to become recognizable as an outdoor destination, to enhance the quality of life through sustainable use and visitation of natural and cultural heritage sites, and to contribute to the economic development of the local community through the development of sustainable tourism products.

Public bicycles are becoming an increasingly popular mode of transport in 17 Croatian cities and municipalities, including Drniš from today. The use of the free mobile application “nextbike” for quick and easy bicycle rentals has been enabled.

The City of Drniš has signed a contract for the maintenance of the public bicycle system for a trial period of three months, and once registered, users in Drniš can use Nextbike bicycles in more than 150 cities, enjoying an unlimited number of free rides lasting up to 30 minutes, as stated in the announcement.
