Excursión ciclista de un día de Liubliana a Divača

This cycling route takes you from the lively streets of Ljubljana, Slovenia’s charming capital, to Divača, a gateway to the caves and karst landscapes of the southwest. Expect a ride of about 91 km, with plenty of climbing—over 1,500 meters ascent—so get ready for some leg-burning hills and rewarding descents! The highest point along the way reaches just over 700 meters.

You’ll mostly ride on quiet roads (over half the route), but there are also some gravel tracks—about 30%—so wider tires or a gravel bike would be a good call. Ljubljana is famous for its relaxed vibe, pretty bridges, and riverside cafes, while Divača is known as the jumping-off point for the spectacular Škocjan Caves, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

This route is great if you want a big day out with varied scenery: rolling hills, forests, rural villages, and finally the dramatic karst landscape. Pack snacks, bring plenty of water, and don’t forget your camera—the ride ends near some of the most unique landscapes in the country!
