Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Gorenja Vas do Železniki

Get ready for a seriously scenic—and challenging!—ride from Gorenja Vas to Železniki. Your route zips you nearly 30 kilometers north through the heart of Slovenia’s ever-green hills, climbing over 1,900 meters along the way. Gorenja Vas is a quiet little town nestled in the Poljane Valley. It’s classic Slovenian countryside here, with rolling farmland and alpine backdrops—soak it in before things get gnarlier.

Most of your ride is on peaceful, quiet roads and a good chunk of gravel tracks, with hardly any busy traffic. Expect a mix of missing or natural surfaces (bring those thicker tires!), plus a bit of good old-fashioned climbing—some spots top out near 1,200 meters above sea level. The landscape shifts to beautiful forests and mountain views as you go.

Your destination, Železniki, is a lovely old mining town tucked in the Selca Valley, known for its ironwork history and cozy mountain vibe. Trust us, you’ll have earned your coffee (or cake) break here. This route’s for riders who love gravel, adventure, and stunning, out-of-the-way scenery!
