Gita in bici di un giorno da Trieste a Koper

Kick off your cycling adventure from the picturesque city of Trieste, a coastal gem perched at the crossroads of Italian, Slovenian, and Austrian influences. Famous for its historic piazzas, peculiar coffee culture, and stunning seafront views, Trieste makes for a great starting point.

From Trieste, head towards Koper, a charming Slovenian town situated about 31.5 kilometers away. As you cycle along, you'll encounter a mix of terrains. Most of your ride will be on asphalt, making for a smooth journey, with some segments featuring gravel paths to add a touch of adventure. You'll find that almost half of your route takes you through dedicated cycleways, so you can really enjoy the surroundings without too much hustle and bustle.

Don't forget those small but satisfying inclines and descents; while the max elevation is just over 208 meters, you'll feel that rewarding push as you surge up and coast downhill.

Once in Koper, soak in the photogenic medieval architecture, especially at the striking Praetorian Palace. Relax by the lively harbor filled with cafes where you can unwind with a rewarding beverage after your ride. This is a trek that beautifully blends the old-world charm of Trieste with the serene waterfront allure of Koper. Happy cycling!
