Istria on E-bike

Spending a day in nature, enjoying the fresh air and having fun in the company of your expert tour guide will result in spontaneous discoveries of unusual paths and trails. This is one of the best ways of getting in touch with the natural beauties of the region. Among the other sites, the tour will also take you on a revitalised old railway line which hasn’t been utilized in a long time. Recently, it has been transformed into a bicycle track, thus gaining a new function and meaning, and offering unforgettable experiences and adventures to numerous cycling enthusiasts. If you choose to try it, it will return the favour, delighting you with various viewpoints that offer striking views of the Mirna valley, numerous hills, forests, streams and charming hilltop towns enclosed in their ancient walls.

The tour begins with the transfer to Grožnjan, an adorable little hilltop town. Before the e-bike tour, stretching our legs along its cobbled streets will serve as a warm-up for our two-wheel adventure. Grožnjan awakens from its winter sleep with summer festivals of art and music, filling the air with a special kind of charm. That’s the reason why such a small town is home to so many ateliers and galleries.

The next on our schedule is a bike adventure on the Parenzana, a beautiful trail intersecting the mild Istrian landscape, which leads us all the way to Livade. Savour the serenity of verdant surroundings while cycling through tunnels and over bridges, passing through ancient forests and admiring the hidden chapels. A trail on which trains once used to roar will bring you to the foothill of Motovun.

Situated on a hillock, this charming little town overlooks the nearby terraced olive groves and vineyards. After an easy stroll through its narrow streets lined with closely built small houses evoking the town’s medieval past, follows the icing on the cake: we will close this pretty exciting and a little exhausting day in a local restaurant where you will have an opportunity to taste local delicacies such as truffles, paired with famous autochthonous Istrian wines. Content and satitated, we shall slowly head back to the starting point
