Bus schedule
Baske Ostarije are located right between Karlobag and Gospic – about 20km (20min ride). You have to tell the driver to drop you off at Kamp Velebit at Baske Ostarije since there is no official bus station (don’t worry, this is completely fine in scarcely inhabited areas). If catching a bus from the camp you have to wait for it on the main road and hitchhike.
