C2C
Coast to Coast gravel. Abbreviated C2C. From the banks of the Mura to the banks of the Drava river, discover the Međimurje region by bike in a unique way. Adventure trails offer the pleasure and conquest of less known parts of Međimurje, in a different way, on different roads and trails, away from the usual tourist routes… We are in Međimurje, in the far north on the map of Croatia. On the “island” between the rivers Mura and Drava. On the fallow land, a place between two waters. In the extreme west of the Pannonian Plain, but also the last eastern slopes of the Alps. “Lijepa naša” is the most densely populated here.
Land between two waters
Even in the time of ancient Rome, Pliny the Elder in the Geography of the Old World called today’s Međimurje “Insullo Muro Dravanus”, an island between the Mura and the Drava river. Rivers have often changed their course throughout history, so settlements were built away from rivers. Today they are tamed. The Mura in the north is surrounded by an embankment, while the Drava in the south has been turned into two large accumulation lakes for the needs of hydroelectric power plants. From all this comes the very name C2C, Coast to Coast, from coast to coast, between rivers and lakes. Therefore, the route of the C2C reveals less known parts of Međimurje, winding from the Mura to the Drava river, touching both banks.
