The Triglav National Park mountain biking trip runs on the most impressive MTB trail in the park.

When you reach Zgornja Radovna village, you can take a rest in a village inn and try their traditional meals. Here the first part of the Triglav National Park mountain biking trip ends. At the Zgornja Radovna village, the valley divides into three valleys below Mt. Triglav, such as Krma, Kot, and Vrata Valley.
