Strada Napoleonica
Strada Napoleonica / Strada Vicentina
A flat panoramic footpath about 5 km long along the edge of the karst plateau, with limestone cliffs on one side and views over the whole Gulf of Trieste on the other.
The path links the obelisk at Opicina with the area near Prosecco. It is mostly flat and well paved, suitable for walking and running. The one-way trip takes about 1.5 hours, with rock-climbing walls and viewing benches along the way. On clear days you can see the Istrian Peninsula and the Grado Lagoon. Take bus line 2 to the area near the Opicina obelisk to start, and return to the city center from the end point by bus 42 or 44. Free.
