Slovenia /Austria: 4 Lakes With Motorcycle


After the morning walk with Bronco to Kršiše (Garmin Connect) we continued with plans on 2 wheels. Lefteris, my Greek friend from the Couchsurfing days was in Slovenia again, so we decided to have a motorbike ride. I planned a ride, where we visited 4 lakes and 2 countries and even Nada joined us. We all had a great afternoon on the motorbikes.

 
The GTI meeting was one of the world's largest Volkswagen meetings. Since 1982, it has taken place for four days (starting on the Wednesday before Ascension Day until the following Saturday) in Reifnitz / Ribnica on Lake Wörthersee Vrbsko jezero. The GTI meeting was founded in 1982 by Erwin Neuwirth with fewer than 100 participants and on its peak it had around 200000 visitors. In 2023 the municipality of Maria Wörth (Otok) decided not to host an event anymore.

Lefteris and Tuši.

The first lake that we visited was Vrbsko jezero - Wörthersee.

Framed in Baško jezero - Lake Faak.

We almost crossed the border in a tank.

Approaching Lake Kreda.

The lake got its name from the chalk (Slovene: kreda) that was mined in the area until 1985.

We separated near Lake Bled, where we left Lefteris behind and we continued back home. After 167 km we arrived to home in our village.
