Cycling
Cycling is a particularly popular sport in Bibione, partly because it’s a great, eco-friendly way to explore the resort and its natural wonders. Whether you’re a competitive racer or just a keen amateur, you’ll find a host of outstanding opportunities and facilities in Bibione. There are a number of Bike Hotels that are equipped to cater specifically to the needs of cyclists, such as by making special dishes and drinks for them. In addition, they can provide information and materials such as itineraries and guides with all of the latest route details.
Riding a bike gives a whole new rhythm to days at the seaside! As well as unwinding on the beach, take some time to explore the natural landscape in the surrounding area. There are all sorts of options for biking in Bibione! Follow the cycle paths, ride through the pine woods, head up to the lighthouse, go from one side of town to the other, venture inland or pedal alongside the magnificent, meandering Tagliamento River and down to Brussa or Vallevecchia.
Race Walking
Bibione Walking Group (Gruppo Marciatori Bibione) has created four permanent routes (6 km, 11 km, 16 km and 24 km) for race walking enthusiasts.
All of the routes start and finish in front of the local council office at 84 Via Maja in Bibione. The start times are from 8.00 am to 3.00 pm unless otherwise stated.
You can buy tickets and have FIASP/IVV record books stamped at:
Bar Silvia (72 Via Maja, Bibione) and Piccadilly Tobacconist’s (9 Viale Aurora, Bibione)
The colours of the signs for the permanent routes are as follows: 6 km (Blue), 11 km (Sky Blue), 16 km (Green), 24 km (Red). The routes are signposted with white arrows on orange backgrounds. In addition, 34 years ago Bibione Walking Group started organizing a fun walk called “A piedi per Bibione”, in which more than 7,000 people take part every 1 May.
