Parenzana Trail: Buje to Grožnjan

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Beautiful section of the Parenzana (former railway line that has been converted into a cycling and hiking trail) from Buje to Grožnjan. Parking at the start of the section in Buje. Rest areas at the beginning, in the middle and at the end of the route. Shortly from Grožnjan you drive through an old railway tunnel. Gravel and gravel path; at times fine and at times quite coarse.

Old Town of Grožnjan

Highlight • Settlement

High above the hills of Istria lies the small medieval town of Grožnjan, known as the "village of artists." Between narrow streets, stone houses, and breathtaking views of the Mirna Valley, over 30 studios, galleries, and workshops are now hidden.

In summer, music festivals, exhibitions, and concerts fill the streets with life. But even off-season, Grožnjan enchants with its quiet, authentic atmosphere and romantic flair.

But the narrow stone streets also tell of a turbulent past: During World War II, Grožnjan was an important base for the Istrian partisans who fought here for freedom and independence.

What was once a place of resistance later became a place of inspiration – where history, art, and life intersect.

Historic village of Grožnjan

Highlight • Settlement

From Porec via Visnjan, and then over the gravel path and the Parenzana tunnel to the artists' village Groznjan. Continue to Oprtaij for an insider's tip Restaurant Loggia on a serving of homemade pasta, and then back over Motovun and Visnjan. This is the most beautiful bike tour in Istria. These are beautiful mountain villages in Istria
