Embark on an extraordinary journey with our Istria and Parenzana Bike Tour, a unique exploration of the Northern Adriatic’s stunning coastline. This adventure begins in Italy, meanders through Slovenia, and culminates in the beautiful landscapes of Croatia.

Imagine the thrill of cycling along sun-drenched coastal paths, the wind in your hair, and the sun on your skin. Each pedal stroke brings you closer to charming seaside towns, each with its own unique character and rich cultural history.

The beauty of this tour is that it’s not confined to a particular season. The Mediterranean climate is welcoming almost all year round. The milder temperatures of spring and autumn offer comfortable cycling conditions and a chance to avoid crowds. For those who thrive in the summer heat, the azure waters of the Adriatic Sea provide a refreshing respite.

Our journey follows the historic Parenzana cycling route, a former railway line stretching from Trieste to Poreč. This route offers a diverse cycling experience, from well-kept paths and gravel tracks to quiet country roads.

One of the tour’s highlights is undoubtedly Rovinj, a coastal town that exudes romance. Its cobblestone streets and lively marina are a joy to explore. The journey concludes in Pula, Istria’s cultural hub, where an extra day allows for a deeper exploration of the city’s fascinating surroundings.

This bike tour is designed to offer a balance of structure and freedom. We provide a detailed itinerary and directions, but the journey is yours to shape. Our support team is always on hand to ensure a seamless experience.

Whether you prefer an electric or a standard bike, we cater to all fitness levels. So, there’s no reason to hesitate. Dive into the magic of Istria, create unforgettable memories, and start an adventure that will leave a lasting impression. The time to start is now!
