Gita in bici di un giorno da Maribor a Graz

Route: Maribor (Slovenia) to Graz (Austria)

Ready to ride from Slovenia to Austria? This scenic adventure takes you from Maribor, Slovenia’s charming wine capital on the Drava River, up north to Graz—the lively, UNESCO-listed cultural hotspot in Austria.

You’ll cover around 81 km, rolling mostly on paved roads and smooth cycleways, making it a comfortable trip for those used to a bit of distance. This route isn’t completely flat—expect about 689 meters of climbing, but nothing too daunting if you take your time. There are scenic stretches on quiet roads and well-marked paths, perfect for soaking up countryside views and stopping at local villages.

Starting in Maribor, maybe grab a coffee in the old town before heading out. The route leads you across rolling hills, farmlands, and border crossings, all the way to Graz—Austria’s second-largest city, famous for its vibrant old town and cool art scene.

Don’t forget your passport for the border, and enjoy a well-deserved slice of Sachertorte when you arrive in Graz!
