Gita in bici di un giorno da Udine a Cividale del Friuli

This ride takes you from the lively city of Udine to the charming medieval town of Cividale del Friuli, about 25 km apart—a perfect distance for a leisurely half-day ride. You’ll roll mostly on smooth asphalt and plenty of dedicated cycleways, with just a touch of adventure on some gravel stretches.

Starting in Udine, make sure to take in the grand Piazza della Libertà or grab a quick espresso before you set off. The route undulates gently, with only a mild climb here and there, so you can focus on enjoying the classic Friulian countryside: think vineyards, fields, and big open skies.

As you close in on Cividale del Friuli, the views get even better—this little town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, famous for its picturesque Devil’s Bridge and ancient Lombard history. Park your bike and wander through the medieval lanes, maybe reward yourself with a refreshing gelato or a glass of local wine. All in all, this is a scenic and mostly peaceful route that’s ideal for cyclists of all levels.
