Cycling day trip from Koper to Trieste

Get ready for an epic cycling adventure from Koper to Trieste! You'll kick off in Koper, a charming coastal town in Slovenia with beautiful Venetian-influenced architecture and a lively marina. It's a great spot to grab a coffee and take in some fantastic sea views before hitting the road.

The journey covers just over 30 kilometers and is a sweet mix of scenic cycleways and quiet roads, making it perfect for soaking up the sights without too much hustle and bustle. The route has a bit of everything — a good chunk of asphalt for smooth sailing, with some patches of gravel for a little variety. You’ll be climbing up to roughly 208 meters in elevation at one point, so be prepared for a decent workout.

As you pedal toward Trieste, Italy, watch as the landscape changes and the hills get a little more frequent, offering great photo ops along the way. You'll eventually roll into Trieste, a vibrant port city known for its impressive piazzas, stunning architecture, and rich history. Make sure to reward yourself with a local espresso or gelato once you arrive! Enjoy the ride!
