Cycling in Slovenia

“ So come with me, where dreams are born, and time is never planned.” – Peter Pan

We based ourselves in Kranjska Gora with the primary reason of biking a portion of this trail. It’s 400 kilometers (250 miles) and goes through Austria, Slovenia and Italy.
As you probably know, we’ve biked a bit and we found this trail to be exceptional!
The blue sky, warm day was definitely a bonus.
I mean, seriously – look at these surroundings!
What an experience it was – we talked about riding the entire trail one day. With E bikes (shout out to Annie) it would be totally doable – 40/50 miles per day? Something to dream about this winter, perhaps? 🤷🏾‍♀️
Ok, the sign on the left means we are entering Italy and the train marker on the right indicates that we are leaving Slovenia. (Look closely and you’ll see my life/biking partner!)
GOATS! IYKYK!!!
I found this ancient concrete fence fascinating. 🤔
Our first destination was this cable car station outside the town of Camporosso, Italy. We hopped on and rode it to the top of Monte Lussari, roughly 1,000 meters (or about 3,000 feet).
Great views of the mountains in Italy.
Murph walked the rest of the way up to the summit for a bird’s eye view.
Ya see, a bird’s eye view!
Getting hungry now so we biked back to Tarvisio, Italy and ate at a recommended pizzeria. This is a pic of the old abandoned train station that is along the trail.
All fed and energized, we biked back toward home. But we had one more stop to make.
Lake Fusine – great reflections, eh?
The sun was getting lower, so after a quick walk by the lake, we turned for home.
Now we are entering back into Slovenia and leaving Italy behind.
Yup, there are Swiftie’s here – even in Slovenia! A nice feeling of unity, I think.
