Zodra je Muggia bereikt, heb je de mogelijkheid om aan boord te gaan van een boot voor stadsvervoer die je naar het hart van Triëst brengt. In Triëst kun je genieten van een dag slenteren langs de charmante promenade van Triëst, het prachtige Miramare kasteel verkennen, door de historische oude stad dwalen en tot rust komen met een cappuccino op het pittoreske Piazza Unità d'Italia.
Reisroute
Deze tocht begint in de mooie buitenwijken van de voormalige Habsburgse zeehavenstad Triëst, Muggia, en is perfect voor liefhebbers van zon, zee en geschiedenis. Na je verblijf hier fiets je zuidwaarts Italië uit, door Slovenië en Kroatië in. Het zonnige schiereiland Istrië presenteert je een veelheid aan pittoreske vissersdorpjes, kleine stadjes op karstheuvels, sprankelende wijngaarden en vruchtbare valleien. Laat je verleiden door de charmes van een landschap dat rijk is aan contrast en kleur.
Hoogtepunten en bezienswaardigheden langs de route:
- Muggia en Triëst (Italië): Begin je reis in de historische havenstad Muggia, net buiten Triëst. Beide locaties bieden een charmante kennismaking met de Adriatische kustlijn, met de rijke geschiedenis van Triëst als onderdeel van het Oostenrijks-Hongaarse Rijk.
- Sloveense kust: Je fietst door schilderachtige stadjes als Koper, Izola en het door Venetië beïnvloede Piran, bekend om zijn smalle straatjes, Venetiaanse architectuur en kustcharme. Mis het schilderachtige Tartini-plein in Piran en de nabijgelegen badplaats Portorož niet.
- Kroatisch Istrië: Als je Kroatië binnenkomt, verken je het hart van het schiereiland Istrië en bezoek je steden als Umag en Poreč, beide rijk aan middeleeuwse geschiedenis. In Poreč mag je de Euphrasian Basiliek, die op de UNESCO-lijst staat, niet missen.
