Cycling day trip from Piran to Umag

This scenic cycling route takes you from the charming seaside town of Piran, Slovenia, to the lively coastal city of Umag in Croatia, covering just under 30 km. You'll roll out from Piran’s iconic medieval squares and Venetian-style streets, hugging the Adriatic coast before weaving through Mediterranean countryside and olive groves.

The ride features a few undulating climbs—enough to give your legs a workout, with about 414 meters of ascent—but nothing too daunting. Most of the ride is on quiet roads and tracks, so you can relax and soak up the beautiful views, but do watch out for some gravel and unpaved stretches along the way. Be sure to pack some water and maybe stop for a coffee in one of the quaint villages en route.

You’ll finish in Umag, a Croatian town famous for its beautiful beaches and as the host of the Croatian Open tennis tournament. Don’t miss a chance for a refreshing dip in the sea or a taste of local seafood to celebrate your cross-border adventure!
