682Venetian Signature

From central Istria to the west coast and back - this is the itinerary offered by the Venetian heritage, a cycling trail with a start and finish in the central square of Svetvinčenat. After passing through Smoljanci and Krmed, you reach the sea in the bay of the Lim channel. Then you ride through Flengi to the entrance to Vrsar, where you will have the opportunity of enjoying the vivid picturesque outlines of the town and the delicious gastronomic offer of restaurants where fish is in pole position. Returning to Svetvinčenat on local, low-frequency roads will give you the additional pleasure of enjoying the colourful natural areas of this part of the Istrian peninsula. Funtana, Mugeba, Šušnjići, Sveti Lovreč and Kanfanar are just some of the interesting places touched by our cycling itinerary.
