Raid Alpine 4.0 – Julian Alps to Adriatic Sea Wk3
This fantastic charity challenge will see participants cycle the beautiful roads and scenery of eastern and central Slovenia, Friuli and Veneto regions in northern Italy, as well as brief visits to Croatia and Austria.
We start in the Italian Alps before crossing the border into Slovenia; through Julian Alps and it’s stunning Triglav National Park, visiting picturesque towns of Kranjska Gora and Bled… Following days, we visit Ljubljana before making our way over the central hills and plateaus, and down to the wine region of Vipava valley! Then on to Karst region and into Croatian Istria, before reaching the Adriatic Sea. Long run through flats of Veneto region will see us finishing just a short distance from Venice.
Each day will be so very different! We will stay in some wonderfully unique accommodations along the way – stunning Alpine hotel, luxury ‘Ranch’, ancient monastery complex in UNESCO protected village, coastal resort…
Variety extends to culinary experience too, expressed in the mix of cultural influences, as we seamlessly weave our way between the region and country borders. Not to mention the wine!
This really is a special adventure that you don’t want to miss!!
