Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Ljubljana à Škofja Loka

Ready for a lovely ride? Set out from Ljubljana, Slovenia’s vibrant capital, pedaling northwest through charming suburbs and into the lush countryside. The route covers about 24.5 km and climbs just over 320 meters, so expect a few gentle hills along the way—nothing too daunting, just a bit of a workout to earn your treat at the end.

Most of the ride is on smooth, quiet roads (about 65%) with a nice stretch of dedicated paths, so you’ll have the space to enjoy those Alpine foothill views. As you pedal, you’ll leave the city buzz behind, swapping it for forests, meadows, and scenic Slovenian villages.

End your ride in Škofja Loka, one of Slovenia’s prettiest medieval towns, complete with winding cobbled streets and a storybook castle perched above the river. It’s the perfect spot to grab a coffee and pastry while soaking in the atmosphere—and maybe even plan your next cycling adventure!
