Parenzana Cycle Path ⬆️ Kaldanija

Highlight • Cycleway

23.3 km

The Parenzana was a 123.1 km long narrow-gauge railway line that connected 33 places in Istria from Triests to Poreč. Today it is a cycle path that leads through wonderful landscapes and villages in northern Istria. 95% of the route is on gravel roads. With the MTB this is not a problem.

Fishermen's Harbor at the Sečovlje Salt Pans

Highlight • Structure

The salt pans of Sicciole are the largest on the Adriatic and are the only ones where the salt is still harvested by hand following the traditional method handed down by the salt workers for more than 700 years. The Parenzana cycle path offers wonderful views of these expanses of salt.

September 18, 2023,Parenzana-Trail 🇭🇷nach Piran (Slowenien 🇸🇮)

Great tour to beautiful Piran!
The “cycle path” actually turns out to be a trail, at least in Croatia! So not so easy for trekking and gravel bikes...👆All in all it was a good 70 km (there and back.)

August 15, 2023,entlang der Parenzana nach Groznjan ☀️🚴🚴

The Parenzana is a former railway line that ran between Trieste and Porec. Now it is a cycle route with a fairly pleasant incline in a beautiful landscape.
Our destination today was Groznjan - an artists' village with many small galleries 🤩.
