Bikepacking de Liubliana a Piran

Ljubljana to Piran Cycling Route

Ready for an adventure across Slovenia? This route takes you from the charming capital of Ljubljana, famous for its dragon bridge and lively riverfront, all the way to the coastal gem of Piran on the Adriatic Sea.

Expect a ride of about 158 km, so plan for a long day (or an overnight trip). You'll cross a mix of paved and gravel surfaces, winding through the scenic Slovenian countryside, rolling hills, and small villages. There’s a hefty amount of climbing—over 3,000m of ascent!—with panoramic views as your reward. Pack fuel for the climbs and take your time to enjoy the tranquil stretches on quiet roads and cycleways.

As the mountains give way to the breezy sea air, you’ll roll into Piran—a picturesque town known for its Venetian architecture and stunning sunsets over the water. Take a dip, grab some fresh seafood, and toast to your cross-country achievement!

Tip: A good gravel or touring bike is recommended, and don’t forget to snap photos along the way—they’ll be as unforgettable as the ride itself.
