Gita in bici di un giorno da Trieste a Portorose

Set off from the bustling port city of Trieste, a place where Italian flair meets Central European charm right on the Adriatic. This 44.4 km cycling route takes you on a scenic and at times hilly adventure westward to the seaside resort town of Portorož in Slovenia.

You’ll get your legs working with over 700 meters of ascent, but don’t worry–as much as the climbing is rewarding, there’s even more gentle descending to cruise into the Slovenian coast. Most of the ride is on smooth pavement and well-maintained cycleways, with just a sprinkle of gravel to make things interesting. The route mostly sticks to quiet back roads and purpose-built bike paths, keeping things low-stress and letting you soak in the scenery.

Stop to admire the sea views, old railway tunnels, and lush vineyards along the way. Once you roll into Portorož, treat yourself to a swim or maybe just a gelato on the lively seaside promenade. It’s a trip that connects two beautiful cultures at the top of the Adriatic–a must for anyone looking for a stunning coastal ride!
