Grado

Boat and bike all the way to Trieste

Sea & Pedals: boat ride in the Gulf of Trieste and return by bike along the coast between lagoon and Karst.

Grado–Trieste: An Adventure Between Sky, Sea and Pedals

Horizons blending together, wind in your hair and the taste of salt. Imagine leaving Grado lulled by the waves, landing in the heart of Trieste and cycling back among Karst cliffs and nature reserves where time seems to have stopped.
It’s not just a bike trip, it’s a journey between two worlds: from the Habsburg grandeur of Piazza Unità to the magical silence of Valle Cavanata.

Blue, Green & Wild: the tour you do not expect

Forget the usual bike ride. This journey crosses boundaries, from the Austro-Hungarian palaces of Trieste to the wild silence of the Grado Lagoon. A striking contrast combining history, sea and untouched nature.

Sea First: start with a mini cruise
The tour begins with the wind on your face. Load your bike at Molo Torpediniere and enjoy about 90 minutes of navigation to Molo Audace. You will disembark in the beating heart of Trieste, right in front of Piazza Unità d’Italia.

Rider tip
Bicycle spaces on board are limited (around 10–15). Arriving at least 20 minutes before departure is recommended.

Castles by the sea and blue vibes
Shift into the right gear and ride along the coast:
  • Barcola and Miramare: following the FVG2 cycle route, you will reach the iconic Miramare Castle, overlooking the Adriatic Sea.
  • Duino: climbing towards the Karst cliffs, you will admire Duino Castle, dramatically set above the sea.

Into the Wild: horses, herons and silence
In Marina Julia, the scenery changes completely:
  • Isola della Cona: a unique nature reserve where you ride among white horses and herons.
  • Valle Cavanata: the final highlight, with long embankments between sky and lagoon, no cars and pure quiet.
