Cycling day trip from Kranjska Gora to Bled

Hey there, cycling enthusiasts! If you're in Slovenia and looking for a spectacular ride, this route from Kranjska Gora to Bled is a must-try. Starting in Kranjska Gora, a charming mountain town famous for its skiing and stunning Julian Alps backdrop, you're in for an adventure.

You'll pedal through 44 km of mostly tranquil roads and cycleways, with a mix of surfaces to keep things interesting—think 52% smooth asphalt and a bit of gravel for those who love a slightly rugged twist. You'll start with a climb, ascending nearly 900 meters to reach the highest point at 1044.4 meters, but don't worry—the descent (over 1300 meters) is truly thrilling.

En route, you'll pass through lush landscapes, perhaps catching glimpses of streams and Slovenia's delightful countryside. And as you draw nearer to Bled, prepare to be wowed by its enchanting lake, complete with the iconic island church and medieval castle perched on a cliff. Bled is not just a feast for the eyes but also well-known for its creamy Bled cream cake (yum!).
