Gita in bici di un giorno da Lavamünd a Maribor

This scenic ride takes you from the Austrian border town of Lavamünd down to the vibrant Slovenian city of Maribor. Spanning just under 89 kilometers, the route rolls through lush valleys and tranquil villages, racking up some serious elevation—expect over 2,300 meters of climbing! You’ll mostly be pedaling on quiet roads and well-maintained cycleways, with a few sections of gravel adding a touch of adventure.

Setting off from Lavamünd, a charming spot known for its riverside walks and location right where the Lavant meets the Drava, you’ll cross into Slovenia’s green countryside. The landscape changes as you pass forests, farmland, and rolling hills, making for a ride that’s both challenging and rewarding.

The journey ends in Maribor, Slovenia’s second-largest city and a hotspot for wine lovers and culture buffs. Take time to explore the old town and maybe toast your ride with a glass of local wine in Lent, the historic riverside district. This cross-border adventure is perfect if you want a solid day in the saddle with beautiful views and varied terrain!
