Gentle hills, valleys and forests, small picturesque towns on hilltops framed by rivers - the beauty of Istria will surely take your breath away.
One of the best ways to discover it is certainly by bike. Explore the former narrow-gauge railway line Parenzana, now turned into a cycling track which passes through some of the most beautiful parts of Istria. Enjoy cycling through the charming medieval town of Motovun, situated on a hilltop, offering stunning views of the green vineyards and olive groves of top Istrian producers.
In the past, this railroad used to connect with the lands of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, and served to send quality products from Istria to the imperial and royal courts. But it also connected 33 towns and villages on its way. After the economic and industrial crisis in 1935 the railway line was terminated and disassembled, and today it offers the cyclist who follows its current path an exploration of the beauty of Istria.
