Sortie rapide à vélo de Buje à Seča

This scenic ride starts in Buje, a charming hilltop town in the heart of Istria, known for its medieval walls and sweeping views over vineyards and olive groves. You’ll ease into the journey rolling northward, mainly along quiet roads—perfect for soaking in the beautiful countryside without much car traffic.

The route is a gentle mix, with a handful of rolling climbs and a rewarding 293-meter descent. Surfaces change things up: you’ll encounter stretches of smooth asphalt and paved sections (around 44%), but bring a reliable bike, because about 31% is unpaved gravel—just enough to give the ride an adventurous twist.

Cruise through lush landscapes dotted with small farms and forests until you reach Seča, a peaceful village just outside Portorož, Slovenia’s relaxed coastal resort. Along the way, you’ll enjoy a real sense of rural Istria, and finish close to the famous salt pans and Adriatic Sea. Pack a spare tube and a camera—you’ll want both for this ride!
