An itinerary of international scope and breathtaking mountain natural beauty that touches three countries: Italy, Slovenia, and Austria.
A more than cross-border itinerary, discovering three countries: Italy, Slovenia, and Austria. The Italian, Slovenian, and Austrian borders in this area actually meet at a single point on the summit of Monte Forno/Dreilandecke/Pec, just above Fusine in Valromana, a town that the ride passes through. You start from the Tarvisio Boscoverde Station, and ride towards Fusine, a village known for its wonderful lakes with varied facets (depending on the seasonal color of the vegetation), until arriving in Slovenia in the town of Rateče (from where you can also reach Kranjska Gora). On your bike, you continue towards Austria and, after passing the Wurzenpass, you reach Krainberg, then return to Italy through Arnoldstein, which is a town close to the border. The itinerary is a loop with remarkable natural beauty. The ride ends in Tarvisio amidst mountain scenery.
