Alpe Adria — from Civi­da­le to Trieste

from 849,- per person

The start­ing point of this hiking tour is Civi­da­le del Friu­li. The Alpe-Adria-Trail runs from Car­in­thia via Slove­nia to Friu­li-Vene­zia Giu­lia, making it a mee­ting point for three cul­tures. The Alpe-Adria-Trail has a lot to offer in terms of cul­tu­re and sce­n­ery: from the pil­grimage site of Cas­tel­mon­te to Cor­mons, Karst and Brda to the stage finish in the for­mer Habs­burg city of Trieste.

The rou­te from the Lom­bard town takes you to Cas­tel­mon­te, the oldest sanc­tua­ry in the Friu­li-Vene­zia Giu­lia regi­on, in fact one of the oldest Chris­ti­an sanc­tua­ries.

Today’s rou­te takes you along the Ita­li­an-Slove­ni­an bor­der, past the viney­ards of the Col­lio and num­e­rous churches. At the end of the day, the small sett­le­ment of Smart­no, the geo­gra­phi­cal cen­ter of the muni­ci­pa­li­ty of Brda, awaits you.

Distanz: 14 km Höhe (+): 350m Höhe (-): 550m

Sur­roun­ded by the vines of the famous DOC wines, as well as old and auto­cht­ho­no­us gra­pe varie­ties, which have play­ed an incre­asing­ly important role in recent years, you reach Cor­mons with its Habs­burg flair. This small town is now the cul­tu­ral cen­ter of the Collio. 
Day 5
Cor­mons — Gra­dis­ca d Isonzo
Distanz: 17 km Höhe (+): 100m Höhe (-): 120m
From Cor­mons, you hike on through the hil­ly land­scape of the Gori­zia Col­lio with its viney­ards to Gra­dis­ca. The name Gra­dis­ca has Sla­vic roots and means for­ti­fied place. Under Vene­ti­an rule at the end of the 15th cen­tu­ry, it was deve­lo­ped into a fort­ress against the approa­ching Tur­ki­sh thre­at from the east. Today, the town is domi­na­ted by the migh­ty cast­le. In the old town, you can tas­te and buy the finest wines of Friu­li. Gra­dis­ca dIson­zo is loca­ted in the Col­lio wine region. 
Day 6
Gra­dis­ca d Ison­zo — Mon­fal­co­ne — Duino/Sistiana
Distanz: 30 km Höhe (+): 670m Höhe (-): 650m
You lea­ve Gra­dis­ca and the plain of the Ison­zo regi­on behind you and hike through the bar­ren karst, cha­rac­te­ri­zed by many traces of the First World War. Num­e­rous under­ground water­cour­ses from the catch­ment area of the Ison­zo share the rou­te today (e.g. Dober­dò del Lago) as well as the mouth of the Tima­vo River. At 2 km, this river is pro­ba­b­ly the shor­test river in the world. The last sec­tion of the tour from Mon­fal­co­ne to Duino/Sistiana can be shor­ten­ed by bus (ticket not included). At the end of the day, Dui­no wel­co­mes you with its cast­le of the same name. 
Day 7
Duino/Sistiana — Trieste
Distanz: 24 km Höhe (+): 460m Höhe (-): 500m
The first part of the rou­te fol­lows the famous Ril­ke Trail, named after the Ger­man wri­ter of the same name. The rou­te con­ti­nues as if on a ter­race along the Karst to Pro­sec­co and the capi­tal of the Friu­li-Vene­zia Giu­lia regi­on, Trieste.
