  • Route: Buje – Buje-centre – Volpija – Kremenje – Momjan – Črnci – Marušići – Grožnjan – Krasica – Buje      

    The starting point is the car park near the football ground in Buje. From there you climb the narrow road that leads from Buje to Grožnjan. Turn left there, in the direction of Buje. Be careful because you are joining a slightly busier road. At the roundabout, take the 2nd exit towards the centre of Buje, then climb upwards to the 1.3 kilometre mark where you turn right into a one-way street that leads to the old town of Buje. Go down the narrow road back to the main road (2.8 km mark) and continue to the right, downhill towards Umag until you have gone 5.1 km. Then turn right onto the minor road towards Kaldanija. After a few kilometres, turn right onto a minor road, and then cross the main road to reach the village of Volpija. Ride straight on to the hotel and restaurant La Parenzana, where you turn left and continue until you have gone 11 km. Then turn left onto the main road, and at 11.4 km, turn right towards Kremenje. Go through the village, then turn left at the crossroads towards Oskoruš.

Continue through the vineyards until 17.9 km, where you turn right towards Momjan. Ride uphill until 18.9 km and the cross-roads in Momjan. Turn left here and ride uphill through the village of St. Mauro to the village of Črnci, from where you will reach Marušiće after turning right as you go downhill. At the crossroads in Marušići (24.1 km), turn left towards Grožnjan. At 27.7 km you will reach the Buje-Grožnjan road, where you turn left and continue straight on to Grožnjan. Return on the same road to the village of Stanica, turn left up the hill, and then, at 31.6 km, turn right up the hill. At 33.4 km you arrive in Krasica. Here, turn right up the hill and ride along the main road to Buje and your starting point. Parts of this route are on the main road, so watch out for the traffic!
