Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Kranjska Gora à Arnoldstein

Get ready for a scenic ride from Kranjska Gora in Slovenia to Arnoldstein in Austria! This 35 km route packs in stunning views, historic border crossings, and has a good mix of long cycleways and quiet roads—perfect if you like a balance of comfort and adventure.

You’ll start in Kranjska Gora, a charming alpine town famous for its ski slopes (it’s also a hotspot for summer cycling and hiking). From here, you’ll pedal past emerald rivers and through mountain valleys, with a couple of climbs early on to wake up your legs (expect about 761 m of ascent, but more descent overall—so it’s mostly downhill fun into Austria).

Most of the route is paved and smooth, and you’ll be riding mostly on cycleways, so you can enjoy the scenery without stress. Arnoldstein greets you on the Austrian side, known for its old abbey and as a junction point for adventures further into Carinthia.

Don’t forget: you’re crossing a border, so have ID handy, and take a break to enjoy the epic mountain backdrop along the way!
