Gita in bici di un giorno da Bohinjska Bistrica a Kranjska Gora

Looking for a classic Alpine cycling adventure? This route takes you from the charming town of Bohinjska Bistrica to the lively mountain resort of Kranjska Gora. Stretching about 66 km, be ready for a solid day out—the route has over 2200 meters of climbing, so your legs will get a proper workout!

You’ll start in Bohinjska Bistrica, the gateway to Lake Bohinj and Triglav National Park. The scenery quickly evolves from verdant valley roads to more challenging alpine climbs, with stretches on quiet roads and dedicated cycleways, plus a good chunk of (reasonably friendly) gravel to spice things up.

Along the way, you’ll trace parts of the spectacular Sava River and pass through lush Slovenian forests and picturesque alpine villages. About 75% of the ride is on paved surfaces, but keep an eye out for occasional gravel patches—nothing too technical, just enough to keep things interesting.

Ending in Kranjska Gora (a famous base for skiing and cycling, and a regular host of World Cup alpine events), you can sit back, refuel at a mountain café, and soak in the Julian Alps. Bring your climbing legs and enjoy the ride!
