Looking for a scenic ride from city vibe to countryside charm? Start your journey in Ljubljana, Slovenia's lively capital known for its vibrant riverside cafés and green spaces. Roll out westwards, swapping the urban buzz for tranquil roads and stretches of easy, quiet paths—perfect for soaking in the landscape as hills start to undulate around you.

You’ll cover just under 25 kilometers, with a gentle but steady climb (about 318 meters of ascent in total) to keep things interesting, but nothing too daunting. The road itself is mostly smooth asphalt and paved surfaces, sprinkled with bits of gravel that add a bit of character—just enough for a hint of adventure, but nothing a city bike can’t handle.

Your destination, Horjul, is a peaceful small town nestled in rolling green hills—an ideal spot to catch your breath and enjoy a coffee at a local café before heading back. Expect a relaxing ride, gentle countryside views, and a rewarding transition from city to village life. Ideal for a half-day cycling escape!
