Slovenia: Cycling to Nova Gorica


Cycling to Nova Gorica is one of our favorite traditions. In 2025, we continued this tradition with another memorable ride across Slovenia. This year, Katja, Dejan, Janez, Jernej, and I shared the adventure. Beautiful scenery, quiet roads, great company, and plenty of good moments along the way made it another special day on the bike. As always, the journey was about more than just the kilometers- it was about enjoying the ride together and creating new memories. After reaching Nova Gorica (Garmin Connect), we returned home by train. To add a little extra to the adventure, some of us continued cycling from Bled to Brezje pri Tržiču (Garmin Connect).

We (Jernej, Dejan, Katja and me) met in Kovor.

 
Dealing with the first climb of the day.

One of Slovenia's most recognizable views - Saints Primus and Felician Church on Jamnik.

 
Towards Dražgoše.

 In 1976 the Dražgoše war memorial was built just outside the village to commemorate this battle and the destruction of the village.
