Road cycling

By bike to the foot of the Kamnik Alps So I swapped the comfort of the car as quickly as I could for the rather less comfortable saddle of a bicycle. This time the destination was Kamniška Bistrica. Given the late afternoon hours available, this ride is well suited to midweek recreation. At the end there are eight kilometres of more or less continuous climb (I am not exactly a lover […]

Cycling trip to Gaj nad MariboromI set off on a slightly longer trip in the surroundings of Maribor, so that I could get home more easily despite any sudden turn in the weather. From our city you can set off anywhere, and this time let the route take us towards Brestrnica. The asphalt road, which unfortunately cannot be avoided, since there really is no other […]

Cycling trip from Bibinje to Dračevac And why not take your best friend along as well, the bicycle. I spent some of my holiday days in a small place on the Croatian coast called Bibinje. A curiosity: Bibinje belongs to the Zadar riviera and lies between Zadar and Sukošan. From the old town of Zadar towards the south, I […]

Those of us who live at the foot of the Kamnik Alps can gather our cycling kilometres among the tourist places, of which there are not a few in Upper Carniola. Last Sunday, despite a few clouds in the sky, I set off on a cycling trip from lake to lake, that is from Mengeš to the lake at Preddvor and first to Lake Zbilje, and on the other side […]

Sometimes I regret that, as far as recreation goes, I am not a morning person but rather a late afternoon one, and then time often limits me, at least where cycling is concerned. Although a few afternoon hours are enough to conquer some new climb, there is simply less time left for stops and for savouring what you have achieved. This time the cycling wander was devoted to the Tuhinj Valley. […]

Cycling trip from Maribor to Sveti Urban With its very interesting geography, Maribor makes it possible to set off anywhere, be it only a ride to the banks of the Drava, a visit to Piramida, or something more demanding such as Pohorje or Žavcarjev vrh. In short, there are many routes and we shall certainly ride them together this year […]

Cycling trip from Maribor to Ptuj  The more kilometres we ride, the easier, more comfortable and lighter the cycling becomes. Routes that are less demanding on the climbs and longer in kilometres are ideal for building fitness. Our lungs will breathe more easily and our legs will grow stronger. That is exactly why I chose a route that takes us from Maribor […]

Tour de Mur cycling trip, Austria For many years I followed one of the very well known and interesting routes that lies in neighbouring Austria. It begins right at the edge of the border, or else it begins at the very other end of Austria, at the mountain lodge below the source of the river Mur. You have probably already worked out which route this is, it is called […]

Once you are on the Slovenian coast it would be a "sin" not to get on a bike and go exploring the surroundings. The countryside of our Littoral can be every bit as beautiful as the sea itself. It does not smell the same, but quite different. It has that homely aftertaste – you know, when you see the vines your mouth starts to water, and perhaps, if […]

You have probably already thought about cycling? Have you thought about cycling through the beautiful hills of Prlekija? It is great if you live somewhere nearby, so the journey there is not too long. For cycling enthusiasts it is of course no problem to load the bikes into or onto the car and drive off towards Prlekija. I am sure you have already heard of […]
