Gita in bici di un giorno da Trieste a Udine

Set off from the historic port city of Trieste, famous for its mix of Italian and Austro-Hungarian influences, and head northwest toward Udine. This roughly 100 km ride gives you a wonderful blend of sea breezes at the start and rolling Friuli countryside further inland.

You’ll climb a decent 1,200 meters in total, with your highest point topping out at 355 meters, so get ready for some undulating hills and great views—nothing the average cyclist can’t handle with a bit of spirit. The ride is mostly on quiet roads and tracks with a mix of asphalt and gravel surfaces. Keep an eye out for those gravel spots—they add a little adventure, but nothing too wild.

Arriving in Udine, you’ll end up in a charming city known for its elegant piazzas and lively bars. It’s the perfect spot to reward yourself with a plate of frico or a glass of local wine after your journey. All in all, this route promises a lovely day out: a taste of the coast, a touch of the mountains, and a hearty dose of Friulian charm to finish.
