Bicycling Canada, Quebec - Adventure Travel Group

Slovenia has it all: The dramatic Julian Alps, impressive underground caves, stunning alpine lakes, well-preserved medieval villages and monasteries, charming villages, rolling hills and vineyards. Slovenia is ideal for outdoor adventures, with white-water rafting, trekking, kayaking, rock-climbing, snowboarding—and fantastic cycling along scenic and quiet roads.

From Ljubljana, the delightful capital of Slovenia, we’ll circle north over the Julian Alps and the Soca River Valley, then on to Kras and the remote southern part of the country, home to vineyards, virgin forests, traditional farms and villages, medieval monasteries and modern thermal spas.

This trip is a challenging and extensive cycling tour of the most interesting and undiscovered areas of Slovenia. We also have a unique opportunity to ride many of the training routes used by the Slovenian pro riders.

Airport Arrival/Departure City: Ljubljana

Average Daily Mileage and Terrain

What Our Guests Are Saying
"Get it right the first time! Trust your next European cycling vacation to Gary and Lise, and you'll be rewarded with expert attention to even the smallest details. We traveled with them to Croatia on a first-ever trip, and were very pleased with how they made us feel right at home. Unique to their small-group setting is the lodging, food, cycling routes, and 'local flavor' you won't get with bigger groups. We can't wait to travel with them again!" Bob and Lynn Green Lynchburg, Virginia

"If you want large busses, large groups and large, "big box" hotels, Adventure Travel Group isn't for you. BUT, if you enjoy being away from the normal tourist grind, small and friendly groups, and guides who personally have experienced every hotel, restaurant and ride, then travel with Gary and Lise. I'll soon be booking my third bike tour and now think of them as friends!" Dave Benson, Fort Collins, CO
