Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Lublana do Borovnica

If you’re up for a scenic ride out of Slovenia’s vibrant capital, this route from Ljubljana to Borovnica delivers a great mix of city, countryside, and a bit of adventure. Starting right in the heart of Ljubljana—known for its leafy riverside, fun markets, and bustling café scene—you’ll soon trade city streets for quieter country roads.

The distance is about 34.5 km, so it’s a solid half-day ride for most cyclists. You’ll climb around 575 meters along the way, with the highest point just over 560 meters above sea level—expect some nice views! About half the ride is on smooth paved roads, but watch out for stretches of gravel and unpaved paths; a hybrid or gravel bike will definitely keep things comfortable.

The final stretch drops you into Borovnica, a peaceful little town famous for its lush green surroundings and the remnants of its legendary viaduct, once one of the largest stone bridges in Europe. This route is mostly on quiet roads and paths, so you can relax, soak up the scenery, and really enjoy the Slovenian countryside at your own pace.
