The Sabadin Viaduct is located on the former narrow-gauge railway line Parenzana, which now serves as a popular hiking and cycling trail connecting Italy, Slovenia, and Croatia. Location: The viaduct is located in Croatia, on the Istrian peninsula, near the towns of Vižinada and Rakotule. It is located approximately halfway between Vižinada and Rakotule. It crosses the Sabadin stream (St. Vital stream). Features: The structure is 64 meters long and 20 meters high. It is a stone arch bridge, an example of early 20th-century engineering. It is one of the main scenic attractions on the Parenzana Trail, offering views of the Mirna River valley and the town of Motovun.

Great idea. I'd like that back home, too.

Just off the Parenzana route, you can see the old Livade station building, now a private residence. The service buildings and what used to be the restrooms are still there.

I recommend riding the entire Parenzana Trail. The viaducts and tunnels are truly impressive.
