Bicycle Tours & Trips in Croatia and Slovenia
Our cycling routes through Croatia and Slovenia work really well for both gravel and road riders looking to mix good riding with local culture. Many tours start near Lake Bled with easy riverside warm-ups before heading into the Julian Alps for some proper climbing. Moving south, you'll pedal through Slovenia's wine regions, Istrian olive groves and past countless tasting rooms - perfect for afternoon stops. The old Parenzana railway line, now a bike path, offers some of the best riding. Our cyclists tell us they especially love the coastal section from Trieste to Piran where the seaside route links small fishing villages and offers plenty of swimming spots in summer.
