When to visit Slovenia

Each season is special for cycling in Slovenia. Spring offers that freshness after the winter hibernation. Summer gives you a hot and refreshing adventure. While autumn charms you with the magical orange/red colors of the forests. More about seasons read here: When to book cycling holidays in Slovenia?

What to pack?

Most importantly, you should wear comfortable sports clothes and cycling/hiking shoes. Please bring a bottle of water and sun protection in the summer months. We provide all the cycling gear (bikes, helmets, first aid, …). Any additional gear or clothes can be stored in a van. For more info on what to pack, read our blog post HERE.

Tour difficulty level

We offer from beginner-friendly to more challenging routes. We use electric bikes on our tours to turn even the most difficult trips into enjoyable journeys for those with less stamina or technical skills. Plus, we adjust every tour to your skills and abilities.

Bike rental

We offer rental of the newest Rock Machine eBikes and Scott Bikes.

You can view our prices and the details of both bikes HERE.

Accommodations

We prioritize accommodations that promote traditional local food and provide a tranquil environment. While sticking to this commitment, we also consider our guests’ interests, ensuring that we adapt the experience by carefully selecting accommodations that best suit each individual or group. More about our partners you can find HERE.

Culinary experience

Breakfast is included in the accommodation, while lunch and dinner are optional. Slovenia has many local restaurants with true local cuisine, making them ideal options for lunch or dinner. This way you can try something new each day. For bigger groups, we can reserve the restaurants in advance. More about Slovenian culinary experience with us: HERE.

Who are our guides?

We always provide experienced local guides. Because we know how important personal experience is, we chased all the selected bike routes and hikes ourselves. More about Greenhills team HERE.

Safety measures

We have van support during the tours, especially with bigger groups. All our guides are equipped with a first aid kit and safety knowledge.

Custom-made tours

We are here to listen to your wishes – your dates, interests, intensity, travel companions, accommodations, and budget. We make sure you have a “perfect” custom-made bike tour in our beautiful Slovenia. By request, we try to adjust our tours to your wishes as much as possible.

Size of the group

Since we believe smaller groups mean better experiences, we usually travel in groups of 5 to 10 people. The minimum number of people for an individual group tour is 4. We are also offering private tours.

Can kids join?

Kids are also welcome, as long as they can cycle independently and can ride for at least 20 kilometers. Please notify us about any children joining when you book a tour. That way we can adjust the difficulty of the tour to them.

Bad weather

In case of a bad weather:

• We try to find the right slot in a day to make a tour
• Tours can be mixed to follow the suitable forecast
• A tour can be changed for a different one in a region with a better forecast
• We organize a hiking tour instead
• We organise a visit to tourist sights
