Giordano Cottur, born on May 24, 1914 in Trieste, was an Italian Professional cyclist from 1938 to 1949. This cycle path pays homage to the child of the country. It follows the route of an old railway line and is very pleasant, as it is mostly made up of fine gravel. It has great views as well as passages under tunnels and over bridges, a delight!
