Breathtaking panoramic road you never heard about before!

in #life7 years ago (edited)

Cycling on the panoramic road over the magnificent Logerska Valley. It's one of the most remote parts of Slovenia and also one of the most beautiful.

Basic information:

  • Route length: 35km
  • Elevation gain 700m
  • Estimated time 3h

It's the upper part of the Savinjska Valley. It takes you about 1,5 hour from Ljubljana the capital of Slovenia to reach the starting point in the city of Solčava.

The road starts very steeply for about 8 kilometers, but you don't feel the climb because you are enjoying the nice views.

On the way, there is a lot of things to see. From caves (Potočka Zijalka) where is a high-elevation archaeological and paleontological site, occupied approximately 35,000 years old.

You also pass a lot of traditional Alpine farms with delicious food and breathtaking views.

What a wonderful experience! I love cycling, but around here it's all done on the beach sand - no hills in Florida! Cyclists love cycling trips in my native Scotland where they can see just such beautiful views!

Thanks! @dmcamera Never been to Scotland but it's defenetly on the bucket list :)

I can say it will be well worth the trip, especially if you like to cycle in the mountains. They cater everywhere to that, so you will be made very welcome!

What a wonderful place! And not far from my country :)

Where you from @kalemandra?
