Overview

Have you ever done a bike tour where you rode amazing trails and explored a charming European capital, all at once? No? Read on…

You probably already know that Slovenia has developed a reputation as one of Europe’s top destinations for mountain biking. But did you know that Slovenia is also a country with the only European capital where you can find one of the best MTB trails in the proximity of the city center? The vast forests, which extend right from the center of our capital city Ljubljana, hide numerous great mountain bike trails that are most popular among local mountain bikers. So why not visit them with the same locals who built them?

We are the first to offer you a unique mountain bike tour, starting from the center of Ljubljana to the handmade Golovec trails park, where you can choose the trails depending on your riding style and experience. There are numerous trails with various difficulties for you to enjoy. Optionally, we can stop at some interesting sights, including the local asphalt pump track (the largest in Slovenia), and take some time for refreshments during the tour. After the tour, we ride through the old town, where we see most of the main sights of Ljubljana.

If you are a mountain biker, you have to try this! You’ll see that Ljubljana is a true mountain bike paradise.

Activity

We offer you an unforgettable organized mountain bike tour, starting from the center of Ljubljana and heading to the handmade Golovec trails park, where you can choose the path you want to ride based on your riding style and experience. Additionally, we offer bike and gear rental.

Usually, all-mountain tours take us about 3 hours and consist of riding gravel roads, single tracks, and urban bike paths.

Please note that mountain biking is an outdoor activity, affected by many factors. We do our best to stick to a set itinerary, but the exact routes and itinerary are subject to change due to weather conditions, various group riding abilities, and unexpected trail changes. Our guides are qualified to make changes to the itinerary to ensure the best and safest experience for you.

All of our mountain bike tours are custom-designed and tailored to perfectly suit your needs!
