Pag Island Karst Road
D106Pag to Novalja
Lunar karst spine road from Pag town to Novalja.
The D106 runs the length of Pag island, from Pag town north through the bare, wind-scoured karst toward the olive groves of the Lun peninsula. The treeless stone landscape gives long open sea views on one side and rock on the other. Mind the strong bora crosswinds, free-roaming sheep and the narrow exposed sections.
