Slovenia Bikepacking with Sisters in the Wild (2026)

Sisters in the Wild presents a 7-day bikepacking adventure for women and non-binary riders through Slovenia’s most iconic landscapes. This specially curated mixed-terrain route journeys from the famous Lake Bled to the turquoise Soča River, crossing Slovenia’s highest mountain pass—Vršič Pass (1,611m)—and exploring the distinctive limestone karst peaks of the Julian Alps around Lake Bohinj.

What sets this trip apart is daily flexibility: most days offer two distance options (shorter 40-50km or longer 60-80km routes), each led by a Sisters in the Wild guide. Riders choose their own style—joining the group, riding with a guide, or setting their own pace—while evenings bring everyone together for group dinners, lakeside swims, and genuine community connection. The route balances roughly 50% gravel trails with 50% quiet scenic roads and cycleways, making it accessible to intermediate riders while still delivering spectacular alpine scenery and rewarding challenges.

Accommodation includes simple hostels and traditional mountain huts, with the option to ride bikepacking-style (carrying all gear) or add luggage transfer for a more supported experience. Bike hire is available locally. With British Cycling and First Aid qualified guides, support vehicle backup, and carefully designed route options, this trip offers an ideal introduction to European bikepacking or a perfect adventure for riders seeking Slovenia’s best trails with built-in community and support.
