Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Spittal an der Drau à Tarvisio

Saddle up for a beautiful cross-border cycling adventure from Spittal an der Drau to Tarvisio! This 77 km ride kicks off in Spittal, a charming Austrian town nestled along the Drava River, known for its Baroque Schloss Porcia and laid-back vibes. You'll roll out mostly on smooth paved surfaces and dedicated cycleways, cruising past alpine meadows and postcard-worthy villages.

The route climbs nearly 1,000 meters, so expect some healthy uphill stretches—but it’s worth it for the mountain views! A mix of asphalt and quiet roads keeps traffic minimal and the peacefulness high. Don’t be surprised by occasional gravel or rough patches, especially as you approach the Italian border.

The journey ends in Tarvisio, tucked into Italy’s northeast corner and surrounded by the Julian Alps, where Austrian, Italian, and Slovenian cultures all meet. It’s the perfect spot to grab an espresso, rest your legs, and soak up the cross-border mountain spirit. Bring your camera—this ride is packed with spectacular scenery!
