To the sea!
Since today's route is one of the shorter ones, there are three places to visit:


First Palmanova, where this year all 3 city gates allow access. (Last year it was only two goals,). The cathedral was open, but the Museum of the History of the First World War was not.
Fortunately, the huge city gates are on …

Somehow I forgot to start the recording today, about 14 km are missing, the altitude may not be quite right ;)

Departure for the last stage. After a really outstanding breakfast, it is (almost) straight to the south.

First destination: Palmanova. A small town, designed on the drawing board of the fortress builders. Things are getting off to a bad start: of the three city gates through which one enters the city, the northern one is completely closed.
Inside, the city …

We made it. 415 km from Salzburg to Grado. I'm so proud of us. And again it was a nice tour. With places worth seeing, such as Palmanova and Aquileia. My conclusion: I can highly recommend the tour. Was a lot of fun. It was varied and historically worth seeing. Now swim and chill. The next tour will definitely come. …

Finale to Grado. In brilliant sunshine. Arriving in Grado is fun. It's a shame that the tour is already over

Today in 32 degrees to Grado. Again, there were mostly asphalted cycle paths and country roads through beautiful villages. Especially the fortress town of Palmanova. The last section over the bridge to Grado was very emotional 😊 Done, and now off to the sea 🏊🏼 . Tomorrow we'll take the bus back to Salzburg.
