Mountain biking
Bovec and the surrounding areas have an extensive network of bicycle tracks, which cater to all experience and fitness levels. We are therefore able to customize a mountain biking tour to suit your physical abilities or daily ambitions.
Whether it is access to the highest Slovenian alpine mountain road (Mangrt 2074m), the Vrsic (1611m), Predel (1156m) or Ucja Passes or the dirt road to Mt. Stol (1150m) – the choices are plenty. There are also many relatively unknown and unmarked roads that carry us upwards – we will discuss these as part of planning for our two wheeled adventure. In the valley of Bovec, the bike tracks are more or less designed for leisure rides. The slopes are mild and governed by the beauty of the Soca and Koritnica rivers. At every turn we are invited to pause and observe the majesty of nature that surrounds us.
