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

This scenic cycling route takes you from the alpine town of Kranjska Gora—known for its ski slopes, turquoise lakes, and Slovenia's fairytale scenery—to the quiet village of Hrušica. The ride covers about 26 km and takes you over a mix of smooth asphalt, peaceful cycleways, and a fair quota of gravel tracks, so a hybrid or gravel bike is ideal.

You’ll start off surrounded by the stunning Julian Alps, climbing gently out of Kranjska Gora with about 550 meters of ascent (expect some solid leg work!). After topping out at just over 1,000 meters, enjoy a long and winding descent that gives you rolling mountain views all the way into Hrušica.

This route lets you sample Slovenia’s less-traveled byways, rolling past forests and through quiet stretches. You’ll spend most of the time on dedicated cycle paths and tracks, which means fewer cars and more time to soak in the views. Hrušica itself is tucked into a scenic valley, offering a relaxed spot to catch your breath and snap a few photos before heading back or continuing your adventure.
