Summary

The lands of the ancient republic of Venice

Three countries in one week, cycling between Italy, Slovenia and Croatia. The history of the Republic of Venice provides the background for this entire trip. From the wonderful, romantic Venice, you will ride alongside the beaches of the Adriatic coastline up to the plain of Friuli. Then you will continue round the coastline to reach the fascinating town of Trieste before finishing the trip at the beautiful Istrian coastal town of Porec in Croatia, a sight to be treasured.

You will ride for approximately 300 km in 6 stages. The first three days are mainly on flat roads, across the Veneto and Friuli plain, while the last three stages are slightly more hilly.
