Cycling day trip from Gornja Radgona to Selnica ob Muri

Set off from Gornja Radgona, a charming Slovenian border town known for its sparkling Radgonska Penina wines and historic riverside location. The ride to Selnica ob Muri is about 38 km and perfect for cyclists who love rolling landscapes—expect some good climbs with nearly 855 meters of ascent, but the descents make up for it, and views across the Mura River and beyond are fantastic.

You’ll spend most of your time pedaling along quiet roads, winding through green fields and tiny villages. The route is mostly smooth asphalt, but keep an eye out for the occasional rougher patch. Selnica ob Muri, your destination, is a tranquil little spot right on the Mura River—an ideal place to unwind by the water after the ride.

Bring snacks and plenty of water, since you’ll be out in the countryside, and don’t forget your camera—the scenery is worth it!
