Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Fažana à Rovinj

Get ready for a scenic ride along the Istrian coast! Starting in Fažana, a charming fishing village famous for its waterfront promenade and gateway to Brijuni National Park, you’ll pedal north through rolling countryside and Mediterranean pine forests. The route is mostly paved or asphalt (perfect for road or hybrid bikes), but expect good stretches of gravel and unpaved tracks—so a little adventure is part of the fun.

The 33 km journey features a few modest climbs (about 315 meters of total ascent), but nothing too daunting—just enough to give you some nice views over olive groves and vineyards. You’ll stick mostly to quiet roads and tracks, with only short bursts on busier roads, so you can really soak up the coastal vibe.

Your ride ends in Rovinj, arguably Istria’s prettiest town, with its pastel-colored houses tumbling down to the Adriatic and the iconic St. Euphemia’s Church as a beacon. Treat yourself to a gelato or a coffee by the harbor—you’ve earned it!
