Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Ljubljana à Bohinjska Bistrica

Get ready for a scenic ride from Ljubljana, Slovenia’s charming and lively capital, all the way to the gateway of Triglav National Park: Bohinjska Bistrica. This route packs in approximately 93 km of rolling hills, refreshing mountain air, and plenty of photo opportunities. You’ll be climbing almost 2,000 meters along mostly quiet roads and smooth tarmac, with a dash of gravel in the mix to keep things interesting.

Leaving behind the vibrant streets and iconic bridges of Ljubljana, you soon pedal into lush countryside, passing sleepy villages and tumbling rivers. As you inch closer to the Julian Alps, the views just keep ramping up—so expect to stop for a few panoramic snaps. The ride finishes in Bohinjska Bistrica, a laid-back town right on the doorstep of Lake Bohinj, perfect for a well-deserved swim or a lazy lakeside coffee.

Pro tip: Start early and pace yourself—those climbs are real, but so are the mountain vistas you’ll earn!
