Sortie rapide à vélo de Ljubljana à Brezovica pri Ljubljani

Cycling from Ljubljana to Brezovica pri Ljubljani

Get ready for a refreshing 12 km ride out of Slovenia’s lively capital, Ljubljana, down to the peaceful town of Brezovica pri Ljubljani. You’ll start in the city—famous for its dragon bridges, leafy riverbanks, and relaxed cycling culture—then quickly find yourself cruising quieter paths and roads as you leave the urban hum behind.

The route is mostly paved, with a few sections of gravel and concrete thrown in for variety, so a regular bike will handle it just fine. There’s a steady climb (over 200 meters in total ascent), but the views of rolling fields and distant hills are worth the gradual effort. Plus, as you cross through leafy patches and charming small settlements, you’ll definitely get a taste of the Slovenian countryside.

End your ride in Brezovica pri Ljubljani, a tranquil spot that’s become a handy base for exploring the Ljubljansko Barje wetlands and local hiking trails. Pop into a village café or park your bike near the historic church to soak in the slower pace. Ideal for a half-day urban escape!
