Bikepacking z Triest do Pula

Get ready for a beautiful cross-border adventure from Trieste to Pula! Starting in Trieste, Italy—famous for its grand piazzas, coffee culture, and Adriatic seafront—you’ll pedal south almost 180 km to the historic Croatian city of Pula, renowned for its ancient Roman amphitheater.

The route is a real mixed bag: you’ll climb a hearty 3,500 meters in total, but the effort is worth it. Expect a blend of surfaces—gravel, paved roads, and scenic tracks—with lots of quiet backroads and some stretches of glorious off-the-beaten-path trails. About half the journey is on tracks, which means you’ll want a versatile bike (and maybe a spirit of adventure).

You’ll snake through lush hills, past olive groves and vineyards, and soak up views of both the mountains and the sparkling sea. Once in Pula, unwind by exploring its bustling harbor and ancient streets. Don’t miss the dazzling amphitheater—one of Croatia’s real gems!

Pack snacks, carry plenty of water, and prepare for a truly epic day (or two) on the bike. This is the kind of ride you’ll definitely remember!
