For guests staying in Kranj, the offer includes day experiences starting and finishing in Kranj, as well as multi-day tours with Kranj as a base for exploring Slovenia.
Two Options for a Full-Day Experience in Gorenjska
Guests who would like to explore Gorenjska in one day can choose between a cycling day and an active day without a bicycle. Both options can be tailored to the guests’ fitness level, preferences, weather conditions, and available time.
1. Cycling Day in Gorenjska
A full-day guided or self-guided cycling experience starting and finishing in Kranj
Kranj is an excellent starting point for exploring Gorenjska by bicycle. The experience connects the countryside, quieter roads, alpine scenery, and interesting places around Kranj. The route is selected according to the guests’ experience, preferences, and fitness level and can also include culinary experiences and other local stops.
Scenic and Easier Option
A mostly flat or moderately rolling route is suitable for guests looking for a relaxed day on the bike. The focus is on quiet side roads, countryside, scenic views, stops along the way, and discovering Gorenjska without demanding climbs.
Sportier and Hilly Option
For more experienced and physically prepared cyclists, a longer and more varied route with climbs and greater elevation gain is available. The exact route is selected according to the group, weather, and current conditions, allowing for different routes and levels of difficulty.
The experience can include:
→ a local cycling guide and an individually tailored route,
→ a self-guided option with route preparation and bicycle rental,
→ pick-up and return to accommodation in Kranj or the surrounding area by prior arrangement,
→ a bicycle or e-bike, subject to prior arrangement and availability,
→ stops at local sights, viewpoints, cafés, or restaurants,
→ support and basic technical assistance during the ride.
2. Active Day in Gorenjska – No Bike Required
