A GREEN CYCLING PARADISE IN
THE HEART OF EUROPE
“Let the masses head out to the Alps. When it comes to mountain biking, Slovenia is Europe’s best-kept secret. Brothers and sisters
we have seen the light, we know that the country is a mountain biker’s paradise, and we’ve been chomping at the bit to get back there
ever since.” – Singletrack Magazine, UK.
TEN REASONS TO VISIT
SLOVENIA BY BIKE
1
It’s green! A well-preserved natural envi-
ronment, ruled over by mighty forests,
fresh air and clean water. “Feel Green” is
not just a gimmick, it’s a feeling you expe-
rience when you come to Slovenia.
pily tell you about this or that great trail or
help you get oriented, and in every town
you will find local bikers that you can team
up with to really discover the land.
impossible to encounter them.

Diverse landscape – Your very first ex-
ploration of Slovenia will yield much,
and when you glance at the map you will
instantly notice the colourful landscape
created at the meeting point of different
geographical regions. Mountains and hills
with breathtaking views, interspersed
with plains and river valleys just made for
cycling. Given the contours of this land, it
is no surprise that cycling in all its forms
is very popular, and it is true that the
countless trails and forest roads will bring
the broadest smiles to mountain bikers.
Travelling by bike in Slovenia is full of
positive surprises, and at the same time
this is one of the safest countries in Eu-
rope. We’re not saying you can just leave
your bike out anywhere, but especially in
the countryside you will feel as safe as in
your garden at home.
Rich history and culture – In Slovenia
you can explore ruins going back to Ro-
man times, tour medieval castles or get
to know some of the still very active
master craftspeople. You can choose for
yourself how much time you devote to
cycling and how much to spend on cul-
ture, but everywhere you go there will be
opportunities for both.

Nature is accessible – When you turn off a
Slovenian road into the forest, you will not
be stopped by any “no trespassing” signs,
you will be welcomed by the refreshing
shade and free access to almost all the coun-
try’s forests and uplands. There are some
restrictions in Slovenia on wheeled vehicles
in the natural environment, but they will
not stop you having wonderful experiences.
Cycling almost has to end (or perhaps
begin) with the “tastes” of Slovenia – in
authentic local inns, with a glass of su-
perlative Slovenian wine and one of the
traditional dishes and desserts.
In Slovenia you will learn that the “per-
fect trail” is not just enjoying some awe-
some wilderness path or conquering a
serpentine ascent, it is enjoying a ride
that is woven into the environment, the
people, the natural world, culture, cui-
sine and surprises around each bend.

Slovenia is all within reach! This is a small
but varied and in many respects rich coun-
try, whose diversity can be experienced
even in a long weekend of cycling, but to
really engage with the natural world and
people here you will need a week or more
on holiday. And then you’ll want more!

In Slovenia you can bike in all seasons,
with the cycling season in most places
starting in April and ending in November,
but in Istria you can bike all year given the
Mediterranean influence.
DID YOU KNOW?
The oldest known wooden wheel and
axle were discovered close to the cap-
ital city Ljubljana. It is some 5,200
years old, evidence that people “rode”
around here back in pre-history.

The friendliness of the local people and the
strong cycling culture – Cycling is deeply
rooted in the Slovenian environment, in
terms of tourism, sports and simply as a
way of getting around. The locals will hap-
Parts of Slovenia are still home to wild
game animals, and you might see a sign
saying “Caution, bears!” (it will actually
read: “Pozor, območje medveda!”). But you
have nothing to fear, the protected wild an-
imals stay off the trails and are more afraid
of you than you are of them, so it is almost
