Description

Day 1: Villach
Individual arrival at your hotel in Villach.

Day 2: Villach – Tarvis/Surroundings (35 km)
You leave Villach along the river Gail and soon you will leave Austria and welcome Italy. In the middle of the valley between Italy, Austria and Slovenia, you will find the Italian city of Tarvis. Austrians, Slovenians and Italians have been living here next to each other for centuries, so the city has become a meeting point of cultures and languages.

Day 3: Tarvis/Surrounding – Venzone/Surrounding (60 km)
In Italy too the cycle path is perfectly developed and allows you to leisurely cycle downhill through the Kanaltal-valley and marvel at the beauty of the Friulian alpine region with its intact, unspoilt nature and extensive forests. Your Day Finish is one of the picturesque villages located at the foothills of the Julian Alps.

Day 4: Venzone/Surrounding – Udine (60 km)
At the Southern exit of the Kanaltal-valley is the location of one of the most beautiful historic villages of the Friulian-Julian-Veneto. The focus of the village of Gemona del Friuli is the majestic cathedral Santa Maria Assunta that will blow you away. En route to Udine you come across the first vineyards and vines along the cycle route. Once you arrive in town feel and experience the dolce vita over a coffee enjoyed on the
Piazza or during a stroll through the alleyways whilst marvelling at the late Gothic and Renaissance
architecture.

Day 5: Udine – Grado (55 km)
Feel the warm breeze of the sirocco! You cycle through vast reed scenery and along little water canals
towards the Gulf of Venice. In the Roman city of Aquileia, the so-called second Rome, we definitely recommend you to plan a break before reaching the end destination of your holiday. One of the most popular Adriatic beach resorts, the historic little fishing town Grado, will not only excite you with the large sandy beach, but also with the historic harbour and the narrow alleyways with lovely restaurants all oozing Italian flair.

Day 6: Grado – Trieste (70 km)
For now you leave the coast behind and cycle across the rough Karst plateau towards the Gulf of Trieste.
Back at the sea you are accompanied by the breathtaking stunning coastal scenery and the world-famous Miramare palace is yet another highlight of today’s cycling tour. The time-honoured harbour town Trieste is a worthy finale to your holiday.

Day 7: Trieste
Departure after breakfast.

🙋 Frequently asked questions

Can I bring my own bike?
Of course! You can participate in any tour with your own bicycle or rent one. However, we recommend renting because not all spare parts are the same, and only with our bikes can we guarantee the best mechanical assistance.
What kind of assistance will I have during the trip?
You will always have an emergency phone number to refer to. In self-guided trips, you should be able to perform minor repairs, like replacing a tube in case of a puncture, or fixing a dropped chain, but you can always count on local assistance for more serious breakdowns.
How do I know if a tour is within my capabilities?
We classify tours on a scale from 1 to 5 based on length, elevation, and complexity of the itinerary, but if you have doubts, contact us and we will help you find the most suitable journey for you.
What is the cost of renting bicycles?
The rental cost varies depending on the bicycle model and the duration of the tour. For some tours, we offer the possibility to rent different types of bicycles. During the purchase process for each route, you will be asked to indicate your preferred bike type and the corresponding price will be shown, so you can choose freely and without surprises.
Are rented bikes equipped with accessories like lights or bags?
Yes, rented bicycles are equipped with all necessary accessories to comply with road traffic regulations (lights, bell, etc.). A lock, repair kit, and a bag to carry everything you need for a day in the saddle are always included in the rental. Additionally, we offer the option to request extra accessories based on your needs.
