La Parenzana in bicicletta

From Trieste to Porec along the former Istrian railway, between Italy, Slovenia and Croatia. 132 km in 4 stages from the coast to the inland hills and then back to the seashore. A guide to discover a route that crosses the most secret Istria, far from the holiday crowds and yet so close to us. From Trieste to Poreč, along what was once, between 1902 and 1935, a 123 km railway line, the Parenzana. Recovered, equipped with appropriate signage, enhanced in its most interesting points, the Parenzana is today a cycle path that crosses three states (Italy, Slovenia and Croatia) also offering the possibility of stops to discover the treasures of Istria: from the salt pans to the truffle, from oil to wine, to gastronomic specialties. All while stopping in towns and locations rich in history and tourist attractions but above all capable of offering unforgettable views. The guide is enriched - as well as by a rich cartography - by all the technical and tourist information necessary to tackle the route without missing any of the opportunities for discovery that it offers.
