Overview

Your cycling holiday begins in Venice, the UNESCO World Heritage “La Serenissima,” set on the shores of the Adriatic Sea. From here, you’ll ride along the Italian Adriatic coast, passing the sandy beaches of Jesolo and Caorle, two of Italy’s classic seaside resorts. Along the way, there’s time for a refreshing swim, so be sure to bring your bathing gear! The inland regions of the Friuli-Venezia-Giulia offer countless charming sites just waiting to be discovered: Medieval fortress towns, Roman archaeological excavations, Italian Piazzas, and buildings embossed with Venetian influences will help any visitor to forget time and space. While on the one side, the Adriatic stretches calmly and silently, the Julian Alps rise majestically to the north. Your journey concludes on the Croatian peninsula of Istria, where coastal cycling meets historic charm. End the week with an optional boat transfer back to Venice, a fitting finale to your Adriatic coast and Istria cycling adventure. The tour is suitable for children age 14 or older. approx. 27% on cycling paths, 70% on little trafficked side roads, and 3% on busy roads (mainly city entries/exits) approx. 90% asphalted and 10% paved roads
