By bicycle from Tolmin to Kobarid

This scenic route takes you from the charming town of Tolmin to historic Kobarid, right in the heart of Slovenia’s Soča Valley.

The ride is just over 16 kilometers, mostly on quiet and smooth asphalt roads, making it perfect for a relaxed half-day spin. There’s a gentle climb to keep things interesting (about 300 meters of ascent in total), but nothing too steep—the scenery will keep you motivated!

You’ll finish in Kobarid, famous for its stunning surroundings and rich history, particularly the World War I Museum and the beautiful Kozjak Waterfall. Along the way, keep your eyes open for traditional stone villages and tempting spots to stop for a coffee.

All in all, this is a chill, picturesque ride that’s perfect if you want to soak up the best of the Soča Valley’s beauty. Don’t forget your camera!
