Cycling

Whether you stay in the apartments at Gorenc or Škantar, great opportunities for cycling are at your disposal. In the vicinity of both houses, 600 meters from Gorenc House and 800 meters from Škantar House, there is access to the 15-kilometre Bohinj cycling trail. An asphalt trail connects the Lower and Upper Bohinj Valley and runs from Bohinjska Bistrica to the lake and further along the Upper Bohinj Valley to Srednja vas. From there you can cycle to Bohinjska Bistrica along the same trail or along the main road, or you can turn uphill onto the mountain bike trail and go over the Senožeta hill. The trail between Bohinjska Bistrica and the lake is suitable for family cycling trips.

The Bohinj cycling trail is especially popular in the summer, when Bohinj is bustling with activity. In the summer season, it is wise to abandon driving with your care and spare yourself the endless search of a suitable parking space.

In Bohinj, it is also possible to turn off the road to different forest trails, suitable for mountain bikers and even “adrenaline junkies” (like some of our family members), but that option is only recommended if you have a mountain bike, personal protective equipment and are in good physical shape.

Bicycles can be rented nearby, and the nearby agency also offers guided cycling trips for all types of cyclists.
