Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Grado à Trieste

Starting from the charming coastal town of Grado, this cycling adventure takes you on a scenic journey to the vibrant city of Trieste. Grado, often called the "Sunny Island," is known for its beautiful sandy beaches and historic architecture. Leaving the seaside behind, the route mainly follows quiet roads and tracks, making it a peaceful ride through the picturesque Friuli Venezia Giulia region.

Expect a mix of asphalt and gravel surfaces, with parts of the path offering natural beauty that more than make up for the slightly rougher terrain. With around a 975-meter ascent, you'll experience a bit of a climb, which rewards you with stunning vistas, especially when reaching the highest point at 354 meters above sea level.

The ride ends in Trieste, a bustling port city that boasts a unique blend of Italian, Austro-Hungarian, and Slovenian influences. As you roll into the city, take a moment to admire the grand architecture, and maybe treat yourself to a gelato at the Piazza Unità d'Italia.

Perfect for those looking for a blend of relaxation and exploration, this ride offers a memorable taste of northeastern Italy’s diverse landscapes and cultural offerings. Enjoy the ride!
