Bohinj Lake Cycling
In mid-May, I cycled from Radovljica to Lake Bohinj. Irina and I had previously cycled together to Bohinjska Bistrica along the cycle path through the valley. This time, I chose a different route over the Pokljuka Plateau, which turned out to be a much tougher challenge. The effort was well worth it, however. The descent from the plateau to Lake Bohinj takes you through incredibly beautiful landscapes, passing several picturesque villages and offering fantastic views down into the valley where the lake is located. The climb may be demanding, but the scenery more than makes up for it.

Vršič Pass
Vršič Pass is Slovenia’s highest mountain pass open to road traffic. The road connects Kranjska Gora on the northern side of the Julian Alps with the Trenta and Soča valleys and the town of Bovec on the southern side. It is an exceptionally scenic route that attracts large numbers of drivers, motorcyclists, and cyclists during the summer months. However, the history of the pass, and the reasons for its construction, is not so beautiful.

Radovna Valley Cycling
Cycling through the Radovna Valley is a beautiful nature experience, but also a somewhat demanding ride. Along the route, you pass through the surroundings of Bled, the Radovna Valley, and the three alpine valleys of Krma, Kot, and Vrata, all with fantastic views of the Julian Alps. The entire round trip is approximately 57 km. This is a popular cycling tour during the summer, especially among tourists renting bicycles in Bled.

Kranjska Gora Cycling
On the last Saturday in March, I cycled from Radovljica to Kranjska Gora and on to Planica. A long ride of almost 100 km there and back in brilliant sunshine. Especially on the stretch from Mojstrana to Kranjska Gora, you are rewarded with fantastic views of the Julian Alps. A large part of the route follows well-maintained cycle paths. The section between Mojstrana and Kranjska Gora is particularly well designed, as it runs along the old disused railway line between Ljubljana and Tarvisio in Italy.

Bohinjska Bistrica Cycling
Bled and its surroundings are perfect for a cycling adventure. There are many well-prepared trails, as well as plenty of places to rent bikes. In our opinion, the best route is the one from Bled to Bohinjska Bistrica and onward to Lake Bohinj. In early April, we cycled from Radovljica all the way to Bohinjska Bistrica and back—a round trip of about 55 - 60 km in glorious sunshine. The only downside is that the trail is not yet fully completed, so you have to cycle a few kilometers on the road.

Velika/Mala Osojnica
Velika (Great) and Mala (Little) Osojnica are two hills, or peaks, that rise on the western side of Lake Bled. These peaks offer some of the best views of the lake and are popular hiking destinations for visitors, photographers, drone operators, and influencers. There are two trails leading to the peaks, an easier trail with a moderate gradient, and a much steeper, more exposed scenic trail with beautiful views along the way. If you have to choose, Mala Osojnica offers the better view.
