The cycling routes are suitable for various levels of fitness and tackling the terrain with electric-assist mountain bikes will ensure everyone gets the very most of this incredible cycling holiday.

Bled is the symbol of Slovenian natural beauty. Its world-famous glacial lake and rich cultural heritage place this landmark right at the top of must-see destinations. The area in and around Bled also offers incredible cycling opportunities down less-known trails which come with amazing panoramic views of their own. Spending 3 days exploring this diverse region on electric-assist mountain bikes is a unique opportunity to explore this part of Slovenia up close.

Your guide will make sure the traveling pace is suitable for all participants and routes are chosen with everyone’s wellbeing in mind.

Every day of this active holiday is packed with sights to see and wonderful trails to ride on. You will get the chance to visit Bled’s renowned tourist attractions and do a great deal of cycling to boot. From an interesting and exciting tour down hidden cart tracks that circulate the town and end with an unforgeable view of the lake, to cycling across the wooded Pokljuka Plateau with its mountain pastures and peaceful meadows, and ascending up to Jelovica for some breath-taking panorama.

Things to know

The included pickup and drop-off at the end of the holiday in the price published on our website is in Ljubljana or Ljubljana airport. For any changes, please notify us upon booking. The included transfers are all the transfers between places and/or activities specified in the itinerary.

Both our back office team and our guides know where to go. We can give you recommendations or even pre-book some places for you. You can be adventurous and find places on your own. Either way, let us know if you would like any sort of help.

Cycling planned on our cycling holidays is easy to moderate – the terrain is not so difficult, there are no major ascents and the pace is meant to be gradual. The electric bikes provide enough extra power that you should be able to climb all the ascents easily. However, the route is adjustable and our guides will take you on a terrain most suitable to your skills and fitness level.

It is important to dress for the season. Slovenia has all 4 seasons, so please check the weather forecast before the holiday regarding temperatures and rainfall. When you are close to the Alps, you can see all 4 seasons change in the same day, so your best bet is to always bring an extra layer and rain gear. Your guide will let you know each day what kind of weather you can expect for the next day and don’t worry – extra layers can always travel behind us in a support van.

It really depends on the level of your restriction. Vegetarian options are fairly easy to find in Slovenia, but vegan dishes, on the other hand, are extremely hard to come by in rural areas of the country and in smaller towns. Please note that the places where we stop for lunch are often traditional and may have difficulties accommodating you outside of their standard menu. We suggest you keep this in mind.

If you want to, sure! We are well aware that some people love to stay in groups while others prefer some more alone time on their trip. We wanted to give you the opportunity to do things your way. It is your holiday, after all! As long as you respect the group timings and locations designated by your guide, please feel free to customize your itinerary and create your own adventure!
