ENDURO TOUR ISTRIA 2019 SCOUTINGTOUR
PROGRAM ENDURO TOUR ISTRIA SCOUTINGTOUR 2019 Istria is also known as the green oasis of the northern Adriatic Sea. Everything here seems so familiar and unspoiled. With just one glance, you can appreciate the nearby mountains, covered with snow, the green meadows, vineyards and olive groves, all the way to the shimmering blue of the sea. Follow our experienced tour guides on carefully selected routes from the Drau valley to Buzet, where we will set up base camp for the next few days. On this tour, we frequently try out new sections of road. But that s precisely the attraction of a scouting tour: discovering new things and not always knowing exactly where the path will lead us. Join us and enjoy your tour!
