In bici da Isola d'Istria a Portorose

Ready for a gorgeous coastal ride? Start your journey in Izola, a charming little Slovenian town known for its lively marina and hidden beaches. Hop on your bike and follow a mostly smooth, paved path—this ride is 9 km of coastal beauty, with about 135 meters to climb and descend, so expect some gentle ups and downs but nothing too intimidating.

You’ll cruise along cycleways and quiet roads, catching glimpses of the sparkling Adriatic Sea, olive groves, and maybe even a vineyard or two. A highlight of this route is the famous Parenzana trail, a former railway line now perfect for cyclists, which connects many Istrian towns.

You’ll finish in Portorož, Slovenia’s most glamorous seaside resort. Treat yourself to a gelato or maybe even a spa visit—after all, Portorož is famous for its relaxing vibe and grand hotels. This route lets you soak up the sun, sea breeze, and local culture, all in a quick ride. Enjoy!
