A three-kilometre section of the Vižinada Cycling Route (101) passes through Baldaši, providing a specific reference point for planning a bike ride.
Cycling on the Vižinada Route (101)
The entire route is 24 kilometres long and connects with several other trails. The three kilometres through Baldaši therefore make up part of the tour, not its total distance. After this section, the route continues from Ferenci along part of the former Parenzana narrow-gauge railway. The old railway line is thus another section of the described cycling tour.
The Vrbanovica viewpoint is also on the route: from the ramp, the trail reaches it after a 1.1-kilometre section. Anyone who would like to take a guided tour through Baldaši can arrange a guide through the tourist information centre. This helps distinguish the details of the three kilometres through Baldaši, the total length of 24 kilometres and the section leading to the viewpoint.

Hiking and cultural heritage in the wider destination of Općina Vižinada
Beyond Baldaši, the wider destination of Općina Vižinada offers trails through the surrounding landscape, as well as agricultural producers and historic sights. One hiking option is the 6.9-kilometre Srce Vižinade 504 trail. It passes through Bajkini, Vranje Selo and Crklada in the south-west of the municipal area. The route includes visits to local winemakers and olive growers, whose products hikers can taste.
The options described therefore differ in route type and length: the Vižinada Route (101) is a 24-kilometre cycling tour with a three-kilometre section through Baldaši; Srce Vižinade 504 is a 6.9-kilometre hiking trail with visits to producers. Both routes combine physical activity with different insights into the wider destination of Općina Vižinada.
Another hiking trail in the municipal area, Staza pogleda 501, crosses the Sabadin Viaduct, which is 64 metres long and 20 metres high. After 3.7 kilometres, the trail reaches the 12th-century Church of St. Vital. Its highest point is at 353 metres; from there, the view stretches across the hills on both sides of the Mirna River.
The cultural heritage of the wider destination of Općina Vižinada also includes historical features in the town of Vižinada itself: a stone relief of the Lion of St. Mark, dating from the 15th century, has been preserved in the central square. The lapidarium beside the bell tower contains five Roman inscriptions. Thus, the wider regional setting encompasses specific historical features as well as routes.
