FULL Waiting list in operation
24th April to 1st May
You need to have been on day rides with us before coming on a cycling trip abroad to ensure you are comfortable with distance and pace. As the first couple of days are mainly downhill, on those days the pace is likely to be faster than our normal leisurely pace but after that the route flattens out and the pace becomes more leisurely.
This route corresponds to the Italian section of Ciclovia Alpe Adria Radweg ( Tarvisio to Grado and onto Monfalcone 140 miles

The Alpe Adria cycle route is one of the most spectacular cycle routes in Europe with medieval towns and quaint villages, wooded rivers, wild ravines. 'After a pleasant trip along scenic alpine valleys, wooded and dominated by high mountains, you'll ride down to the fertile plain of Friuli that will lead up to the sunny beaches of the Adriatic Sea.'
This part of the route is considered easy as it is mainly downhill or flat as we start at Tarvisio (around 750m above sea level) and end at the coast at the historic city of Grado. The route is a mixture of traffic-free surfaced cycleways on old railway lines, tarmac country roads and the occasional stretch of dirt road.
