Food & wine Cycling along this route, you will cross the territory of Fiumicello, famous for its peaches to such an extent that every year it hosts the much-awaited regional peach exhibition. When you reach the final destination of Aquileia, one of the cradles of regional viticulture, you can begin a journey back in time to discover the flavours of Ancient Rome by tasting the Dolce Aqvileia, a cake with a soft and creamy heart made with walnuts, spelt, figs and honey, enclosed in a crunchy pastry. Recommended dish: Dolce Aqvileia (or wine-soaked peaches).
Itinerary Starting from the Monfalcone railway station, pedal towards Ronchi dei Legionari and reach the Trieste Airport, where there is also the train station of the same name where trains carrying bicycles stop along the Trieste-Venice railway line. We then proceed towards Begliano, Turriaco and Pieris and continue to Fiumicello, from where we finally reach Aquileia.
Author’s recommendation
Once you reach your destination, you can cycle along the Adriatic Sea FVG2 cycle route, the Alpe Adria FVG1 cycle route, or the Aquileia rings (R041 or R046).
