Cycling Slovenia: Ljubljana to the Adriatic

  • Discover the charming old world capital of Ljubljana and its hilltop castle
  • Explore the astonishing Postojna cave complex replete with waterfalls and a gorge bridge
  • Take a scenic side route to the impossibly perched and legendary Predjama Castle
  • Cycle to the Italian medieval port of Muggia for some gelato
  • Bask in Adriatic sea vistas in Piran, once a stronghold of powerful Venetian dukes
  • Opt for a standard bike, or choose an E bike for a bit of an assist
Explore picturesque Slovenia on two wheels on our self-guided Slovenia bike tour, as you ride from the historic capital of Ljubljana to the crystal-clear waters of the Adriatic Sea. Cycle through peaceful rural villages and along scenic backroads as you make your way to the remarkable Postojna Caves—the largest cave system in the country. Take a detour to visit the stunning Predjama Castle, dramatically built into the side of a towering cliff. Continue your cycling Slovenia adventure with a stop at the UNESCO-listed Škocjan Caves, then cross into Italy to explore the charming medieval port town of Muggia. Your journey wraps up in the beautiful Venetian harbor town of Piran, where you can relax with fresh seafood and an ice-cold beer overlooking the Adriatic.
