Gita in bici di un giorno da Radovljica a Bohinjska Bistrica

Get ready for a stunning ride from the charming medieval town of Radovljica to the picturesque gateway of the Julian Alps, Bohinjska Bistrica. This roughly 32 km route sweeps you through the lush landscapes of Slovenia’s Upper Carniola region, with just enough hills (nearly 890 m of ascent!) to keep your legs honest.

Start in Radovljica, known for its lovely old town, chocolate festival, and the fascinating Bee Keeping Museum—a nod to Slovenia’s rich apiculture heritage. The route takes you mostly along quiet country roads and smooth asphalt cycleways, winding past rolling meadows, sleepy villages, and with the dramatic backdrop of the high mountains getting ever closer.

Near Lake Bled, you might catch glimpses of its famous blue waters before you continue deeper into the Bohinj Valley, the ascent rewarding you with incredible alpine scenery. Your ride ends in Bohinjska Bistrica, a small but lively town offering easy access to Lake Bohinj and Triglav National Park—perfect for a well-deserved gelato (or adventure, if you’re not done yet!).

All in all, it’s the ideal ride for lovers of scenery, with a mix of gentle cycle paths and a bit of challenge—Slovenia at its best on two wheels!
