                                                          CHARACTERISTICS OF THE ROUTE
                                                          This bike tour to Trieste runs mostly flat on bike paths
                                                          and little-used side roads.

                                                          The distance of the individual stages is not very long,
                                                          therefor this tour is particularly suitable for families
                                                          with children.

BICYCLE HOLIDAY

A DAY BY DAY ACCOUNT OF THE ROUTE

DAY 1: Arrival in San Donà di Piave
Individual arrival at the hotel on San Donà di Piave. The “Serenissima” with all its splendid buildings invites to a
primary inspection and is only some chilometres far away. The city of Venice has a well organised and easily acces-
sible public transport system.

DAY 2: San Donà di Piave – Lido di Jesolo (approx. 25 km)
The first chilometres on your bicycle tour leaves you to the typical beach resort of Lido di Jesolo, which seams
unchanged for the last 30 years and that‘s probably why it is so popular. The adventure parke New Jesolandia with
his numerous attractions, from the classic one to the new-modern, will invite you for a visit in the late afternoon.

DAY 3: Lido di Jesolo - Caorle (approx. 20 km)
Today you will first reach Eraclea Mare and pass it‘s lagoon surrounded by dunes and pine trees on all sides,
which is a refuge for birds. You cycle along the coast into the holiday center Duna Verde, conspicuously laid out
in a circular pattern. However, the preserved nature, the dunes and the greenery give the town its striking name.
Today‘s destination is Caorle, where beach and sea are mixed with history and traditions. The fishing port in the
historic center, antique houses, alleys and squares characterize the picture.

DAY 4: Caorle - Bibione/Lignano (approx. 40 - 50 km)
You have to say goodbye to the sea now - but not for long. Through the hinterland you cycle around the lagoon of
Caorle, which Ernest Hemingway already loved and which enchants with its very special flora, the many migratory
and standing birds and the old fishermen‘s huts made of wood and reeds, which are still preserved. Back at the
sea, you will spend the night in Bibione or Lignano, the two seaside resorts to the left and right of the Tagliamento
River, which rises in the Alps and flows into the Adriatic here.

DAY 5: Bibione/Lignano - Aquileia/Grado (approx. 45 - 55 km + boat trip)
The river Stella leads you today from its mouth in the Stella nature reservoir into the hinterland to the small towns
of Precenicco and Palazzolo dello Stella. On the other side of the river you cycle to the so-called „Bilancia da Bepi“,
where fishing is still carried out with a large net, as it has been for 40 years. You continue by boat until shortly be-
fore Aquileia, a formerly thriving city of the Roman Empire. From there it is not far to the stage destination Grado.
Grado is considered a sun and gold island, has a beautiful old town and is equally popular with beach and culture
lovers.

DAY 6: Aquileia/Grado - Trieste (boat trip)
A ship takes you across the Gulf of Trieste to the former Habsburg town by the sea. Trieste has a rich and complex
history and only became part of Italy at the end of the First World War. A backdrop of ships and cranes, palaces
from the imperial era and magnificent villas characterize today‘s cityscape. Many buildings are kept in the neoclas-
sical and art nouveau style. The center of the extremely charming city, also called „Gate of Europe“ or „Coffee
capital“, is the spectacular Piazza dell’Unità d’Italia.

DAY 7: Departure
Individual departure or possibility to extend your stay in Trieste.
