After a proper cyclist’s breakfast, we hit the 66 km spin with a 1250 m ascent over the Pokljuka Plateau. The we wind our way down to the famous Bohinj and Bled lakes. At the latter destination you will get to taste the delicious local cream cake dessert. We then return to base where we relax, recharge out energy levels and have a good night’s rest.
Today’s stage will consist of 110 km and 2800m of uphill cycling. We will head over Slovenia’s highest Alpine pass Vršič. After a long descent, you can also climb the country’s highest road to Mangart with its carved tunnels and jaw-dropping views. Next, it’s time to jump over the Col du Predil pass into Italy and finish with an easy flat section to cool down after an exhilaratingly long day. After relaxing at the hotel, it’s back to reality.
