Gita in bici di un giorno da Lubiana a Kranj

Ljubljana to Kranj Cycling Route

Get ready for an awesome day ride from Slovenia’s vibrant capital, Ljubljana, to the charming town of Kranj! This route is just over 35 km and mostly on smooth, paved roads—so it’s ideal for a relaxed, scenic ride. You’ll crest around 365 meters in ascent, but nothing too tough: just enough to keep it interesting.

Leaving Ljubljana, famous for its friendly atmosphere and the leafy Ljubljanica River, you roll north through peaceful countryside, passing through sleepy villages and lush meadows. About 70% of your ride is on quiet roads, with a sprinkle of bike paths and shady forest tracks to keep things varied.

Kranj awaits at the end—a medieval town perched above the confluence of two rivers, with cobbled streets and stunning mountain views. Don’t miss a wander through the old town or a coffee in the main square before you head back. This route is great for anyone who wants to combine a touch of urban buzz with plenty of pastoral Slovenian charm. Enjoy the ride!
