Life on Mars Trail Metajna — Attraction in Grad Novalja

The trail is beautiful and definitely an experience worth doing if you're on Pag. The landscape is barren, but somehow it's kinda magical.

The trail itself is Easy, but should be taken as Moderate (Hard if you go the full 20km), because of the strong winds, almost NO shade to hide if your hot, and if you go on the full trail it's a 4-7 hour adventure.

There are absolutely beautiful beaches to be found along the trail (probably the most beautiful you'll find on Pag) which are well worth the 2-4 hours you'll need to get to them.

Pack plenty of water as the trail is completely removed from humanity and the nearest anything is hours away. Also toilet paper, do NOT forget...

Absolutely stunning and unique trail and landscape on the beautiful island of Pag, which really does live up to (and exceed) its otherworldly name and reputation! I visited in Sept 2024 and it was one of the best adventure days out I've had in a while. I headed out for the Life on Mars via ferrata route, which takes about 1hr to hike to, though the overall trail has many offshoots and can be done as part of a full/multi-day loop. Keep an eye out for the Hummingbird hawk moths that are in abundance around the scrubby flora alongside the trail and bring plenty of water as there's almost no shade anywhere in the...

Beautiful hiking experience, in group of three we finished after 4 and half hour with single bottle of water, warm Coca-Cola and few sweets which felt like a fabric softener and flip-flops. It was spectacular way, really amazing views. Through 3 beaches, going up and down. Across the small pass, thistle field full of herds of sheeps and not small amount of spiders. It was really good hike, recomend to go it not in full sun and with at least two big bottles of water (min. 1,5l).
