Discover Slovenia

From the bustle of Ljubljana to the shimmering alpine beauty of Lake Bled, Slovenia is a small country that makes a big impression. Pristine landscapes give way to charming villages. Pine forests embrace charming wooden houses. Picturesque valleys unfold to reveal sweeping vistas around mountain bends. As you’ll discover on a VBT Slovenia cycling tour, this is a magnificent outdoor playground ideally explored by bicycle.

While Slovenia’s natural wonders often take center stage, it’s the man-made treasures that beckon in Ljubljana, a pastel-hued picture of baroque architecture, elegant bridges, and inviting lanes huddled along the lazy Ljubljanica River. In this eco-conscious city, car traffic is restricted to the center, leaving ample space for pedestrians and cyclists to explore quiet streets along the riverbanks.

A cycling tour of Slovenia is the best way to experience the stunning countryside, from the quaint village of Kranjska Gora, home both to the thrills of World Cup skiing and the tranquility of a nature retreat, to the soothing pasturelands of the emerald Radovna Valley. Few places match the sublime beauty of sparkling Lake Bled, Slovenia’s crown jewel in the midst of alpine splendor. This pristine corner of Slovenia seems torn from a storybook, its waters home to a single tiny island that hosts the charming Pilgrimage Church of the Assumption of Mary.

Food and Wine

Sample traditional dishes and relax with a glass of Slovenian wine after a long day in the saddle. Slovenian cooking is a delightful mix of influences from its neighboring countries: Austria, Italy, Croatia, and Hungary. The country’s wine culture is exploding and its wineries are starting to gain attention on the world scene.

Thermal Spas

There’s no better way to relax than by sinking into the soothing warmth of a thermal spring. Slovenia’s thermal spas have been used to rejuvenate and heal since Roman times. The towns that sprung up around these unique natural features continue the tradition and offer plenty of ways to soothe tired muscles.

Julian Alps

Named for Julius Caesar, this impressive mountain range stretches from northeastern Italy through Slovenia. Stand in the shadow of its highest point, Mount Triglav, and explore the beautiful Triglav National Park, the country’s first and only designated national park. A treasure trove of natural beauty awaits exploration here.
