ゴリシュカのおすすめランニングルート

Soča/Isonzo川にかかる自転車歩行者専用橋からは、この川筋の美しい眺めが楽しめます。さらに進むと、これまでに建設された中で最大のアーチを持つ石橋、Solkan鉄道橋が見えてきます。

巨大で美しい谷

イタリアとスロベニアを隔てる想像上の線。そこには有刺鉄線があり、そして小さなベルリンの壁がそびえ立っていました。幅半メートルのコンクリートの土台の上に、高さ1.5メートルの手すりが取り付けられたフェンスで、都市の内部境界線に沿って建設され、イタリア側のゴリツィアと、終戦後にチトーのユーゴスラビアに併合されたトランザルピナ広場の鉄道駅と郊外地区を隔てていました。一方、反対側には、鏡写しのように対照的なノヴァ・ゴリツァがそびえ立っていました。そしてまさにその広場は、冷戦中、東西ヨーロッパ、すなわち西側と共産主義側の分離の象徴となっていたのです。

Europe Square (Trg Evrope / Piazza Transalpina) is dominated by the monumental 1906 train station building, now located in Nova Gorica on the Slovenian side of the border. It was once the northern railway station of Gorizia and is the starting point for journeys to the Soča Valley, the Vipava Valley, and the Karst region. The square has two names: one Slovenian and one Italian. The mosaic in the center of the square was designed by Franko Vecchiet from Trieste, who belongs to the Slovene ethnic group in Italy, to mark Slovenia's accession to the European Union in 2004.

The famous Solkan Bridge, the world's largest masonry arched railway bridge, dominates the Soča River. This engineering masterpiece was built at the beginning of the 20th century as part of the famous Bohinj Railway (Transalpina) and still serves its purpose today. Bungee jumping is offered on the nearby road bridge in the summer. A little further downstream, this elegant pedestrian and cyclist bridge was recently built, connecting the existing cycle paths on both sides of the border.

Very historical bridge that survived both world wars.

Stunning susspension bridges and rocky river views!

On one hand, it's a very nostalgic border crossing with former station buildings on the Slovenian and Italian sides. On the other, the border line is marked by a bike path and railway tracks. The fence in between, painted in the colors of Slovenia, serves not as a border fence, but as a protective barrier for cyclists and the railway.
