Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Ljubljana à Koper

Ready to swap city vibes for some serious sea air? This ride takes you from Slovenia’s lively capital, Ljubljana, right down to the coastal town of Koper on the Adriatic. Expect a proper adventure: you’ll cover around 143 km, so pack snacks and get ready for a good day in the saddle.

You’ll roll out from Ljubljana’s historic heart—think Baroque bridges and lively cafés—then pedal south through rolling terrain that really puts your legs to work. There’s almost 2,700 meters of climbing, but the pay-off is the cruising descents. The route mixes things up: mostly quiet roads and some scenic gravel stretches, with a big chunk on paved and asphalt (but expect a couple of bumpier bits in between for that true countryside feel).

After the hills, you’ll finally spot the sparkling Adriatic. Your finish point, Koper, oozes Mediterranean charm with its old Venetian architecture and waterfront promenade. Treat yourself to some gelato or dip your toes in the sea—after this ride, you’ve earned it!
