E-Bike Rental in Mljet National Park — Ride the Lakes and Pine Ridges
Explore Mljet National Park on a Bosch-equipped e-bike: an easy two-hour loop around the park’s twin lakes, with monastery views, short climbs, and pine-scented coastal panoramas. Ideal for riders of most fitness levels, the rental makes the park’s roads accessible and efficient.
The Experience
Before You Go
Charge Check
Confirm battery level before you leave; Bosch systems are powerful but plan for a reserve if you want side trips away from the main loop.
Follow Park Rules
Bicycles are allowed around the lakes but motor vehicles are not — stick to marked routes to protect sensitive shoreline habitat.
Timing Matters
Start early or late afternoon to avoid ferry crowds and midday heat; light is best for photos and wildlife sightings.
Secure It
Bring a compact bike lock and helmet — locks deter opportunistic thefts at busy piers and helmets are provided but a personal fit is safer.

Conservation Note
Mljet is a protected national park — stick to paths, avoid feeding wildlife, and carry out any trash to reduce impact on its pine forests and freshwater lagoons.
The park includes a 12th-century Benedictine monastery on the islet in Veliko Jezero; the lakes and stone ruins reflect centuries of human presence tied to the sea.
