Description

The Parenzana Cycling Trail. More information on the trail can be found here: https://www.parenzana.net/ The cycling trail stretches from the Italian coastal town of Muggia along the route of an old narrow-gauge railway line, making use of the many bridges and tunnels as it winds past beaches, to the coastal Sečovlje salt pans before moving through the hills and down into Poreč. The railway transported wine and olive oil between 1902 and 1935 but now provides a spectacular cycle path. The route is mainly asphalt in Italy and Slovenia, but changes to a gravel trail in Croatia. With a good trekking bike you should have no issues navigating the entire trail, as you can see from the videos. Part 4 - 39km. The fourth and final section of the Parenzana trail starts in Livade before climbing into the hills around Motovun. Along the way the route crosses some spectacular ex-railway bridges up to Vižinada. It then passes through lovely rolling countryside, past vineyards growing from the dark red Istrian earth. Finally we reach the the end of the Parenzana before travelling first along roads and then the dedicated coastal path into the heart of beautiful Poreč.
