The '''Istrian Spring Tour''', formerly known as the '''Istrian Spring Trophy''' ({{langx|hr|Istarsko proljeće}}), is a multi-day road bicycle race held annually in the Croatian part of the Istria peninsula. The race was first organized in 1961 as a small competition reserved to local cyclists. In 2000, it was opened to professional riders; since 2005, it is rated as a 2.2 event on the UCI Europe Tour. Before 2006, the race was called "Jadranska magistrala".
The 2012 edition of the race featured a prologue and three stages totaling {{convert|487|km}}, and was contested by more than 200 cyclists from 35 teams.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.hrsport.net/vijesti/436761/ostali-sportovi-biciklizam/austrijancu-istarsko-proljece/ | title=Austrijancu Istarsko proljeće | work=hrsport.net | date=19 March 2012 | language=hr | access-date=21 November 2012}}</ref>
