Cycling day trip from Bled to Kranjska Gora

Get ready for a truly scenic adventure! This cycling route takes you from the iconic lakeside town of Bled to the alpine haven of Kranjska Gora—two of Slovenia’s most picturesque destinations. Starting at Bled, with its storybook island church and medieval clifftop castle, you’ll pulse with excitement riding alongside emerald-green Lake Bled.

The route covers around 45 kilometers and isn’t just a coast—the ascent totals over 1,300 meters, so you’ll want a bit of climbing spirit. But you’re rewarded with amazing Alpine views, lush forests, and fresh mountain air as you make your way north. The surface varies but is mostly smooth (over 70% paved), with some stretches of gravel that add a touch of adventure.

Before you know it, you’ll roll into the charming mountain town of Kranjska Gora, gateway to Triglav National Park and a year-round outdoor playground. Take some time to relax in a café or dip your toes in the crystal-clear streams. All in all, this ride offers a mix of challenge, beauty, and a genuine taste of Slovenia’s heart!
