View of Napoleon Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

A classic historic bridge, very well preserved or renovated. Combined with the eroded gorge and the emerald-colored waters of the Soca, the bridge's value increases. All in all, it's a free tourist attraction.

The Italian section is rather unspectacular, partly gravel roads and quiet country roads, while the Soča section is simply beautiful nature,🤩 mostly on paved, quiet side roads. It's a constant up and down. At the end of the tour, the last few kilometers, there was another beautiful bike path to the finish.
