The itinerary of this active biking Pokljuka tour

The meeting point is at our Bled office, where you will get a mountain bike and the equipment for the trip. Your guide will explain to you the tour course and give you safety instructions. Then you will head out towards Lake Bled, where you will turn below Bled Castle to Spodnje and Zgornje Gorje villages. Cycling through the villages gives you the first impression of the typical alpine countryside.

Ascent to the gates of the Triglav National Park

The trail starts to rise steeply and continues to Pokljuka plateau. You will soon enter the Triglav National Park area. Throughout the uphill ride, you will be able to observe the majestic forests on the Pokljuka plateau and the views of the encircling Julian Alps. You can make a stop during the climb if you would like to rest a bit.

An exceptional ride across the plateau and mount pastures

When cycling uphill, you will pass the former Zatrnik ski slope and continue to the top of the Pokljuka plateau. You will cycle across the plateau on a gently sloping path and then turn right onto a macadam trail that leads you to the Zajamniki shepherd’s mountain pasture. An impressive MTB active biking Pokljuka tour will lead you to a spot where a view of the high mountain world and the peaks of the Julian Alps opens. On the mountain pasture, you will get an opportunity to have a snack and fresh up, rest and enjoy the fresh alpine air. You will then cycle down the same asphalt trail. The MTB tour slowly ends with an adrenaline descent on a winding asphalt road through the Zgornje and Spodnje Gorje villages and back to our office in Bled.

When can you join an active biking Pokljuka trip?

MTB tours are available between April and October when there are the most suitable weather conditions. We carry out the trip according to inquiries, so you can book it any day of the week. The active biking Pokljuka trip lasts from 5 to 6 hours, depending on the cycling pace and stops along the route.

The tour is demanding and as such suitable for active bikers in good shape, looking for new challenges. When you reach the outside of Bled, the trail starts to rise steeply to the Pokljuka plateau. You will cycle uphill and make an 800 meters difference in height and around 30 kilometers in both directions. In our agency, we also offer an e-bike for an additional charge. An e-bike will help you a bit in overcoming the slopes, but you will still need muscle strength and endurance.
