Staza Lovrechik Kapetana

 

This tour connects Poreč with Istrian hinterland, with medieval town of St. Lovreč as the main highlight.  This historical town has one of the best-preserved medieval fortifications in Istria. In Venetian times, it was the headquarters of Captains, military commanders of the Istrian region. The tours starts in Poreč; riding along country roads and forest trails we arrive to Ženodraga. After crossing the highway, we pass Baderna and continue to St. Lovreč. Here we suggest making a short break, taking a walk through the historical town center and having a coffee right next to the town walls. On the return to Poreč, we ride through a hilly area of south Poreč countryside. This part of the tour is very dynamic, with many short climbs and descents. You can alo start your tour in Sveti Lovreč.
