Giro veloce in bici da Muggia a Trieste

This ride takes you from the charming port town of Muggia, nestled right along the Adriatic Sea, up to the vibrant city of Trieste. Expect some stunning coastal views and a good mix of Italian-Slovenian vibes—Muggia is the last Italian town before Slovenia, complete with medieval old-town streets and a scenic harbor.

The route is just under 20 km, and there’s a bit of climbing (around 430 meters of ascent), so be ready for some rolling hills and a couple of punches, but most of the ride is on paved, quiet roads or dedicated cycleways, making it pretty relaxing if you’re in no hurry. There are a few unpaved and gravel stretches, so wider tires are a bonus. As you approach Trieste, notice how the scenery shifts from rustic coastal to stately grand city—the Miramare Castle sits nearby, and the big, open Piazza Unità d’Italia at your journey’s end is perfect for a celebratory espresso. Pack your camera—this is a route made for scenic stops!
