Cycling day trip from Arnoldstein to Kranjska Gora

Grab your helmet and hop on your bike for a delightful ride from Arnoldstein to Kranjska Gora! This 44-kilometer journey kicks off in the charming Austrian town of Arnoldstein, nestled at the foot of the Karawanks mountain range. Known for its stunning monastery ruins and serene settings, Arnoldstein is the perfect starting point for an adventure.

As you pedal away, you'll traverse a mix of surfaces, mainly gliding over smooth asphalt and paved paths, with a few sections of gravel for that natural touch under your wheels. About half of the route is dedicated cycleway, offering a stress-free ride through picturesque landscapes.

Along the way, expect some climbs—you're ascending roughly 1,482 meters. But don’t worry, the spectacular views from the higher elevations, like the one at around 1,044 meters, make the effort worthwhile.

Descending into Kranjska Gora, you're greeted by the serene beauty of this picturesque Slovenian alpine town. Known for its ski resorts, it’s equally enchanting in the warmer months. Why not reward yourself after the ride with a stroll through its charming streets or a refreshment in one of the cozy cafés? Happy cycling!
