MOUNTAIN BIKE FAMILY

Dixi – Founder of Bikenomad.

Dušan Štrucl – Dixi The Legend of Slovenian Mountain Biking and a Pioneer of MTB Tourism in Slovenia.

More about:


As a geographer and passionate explorer, he recognized the potential of the Koroška region for mountain biking in the 1990s. In 1995, he established the first mountain bike hotel in Slovenia and developed the first specialized MTB programs. In 2000, he founded Bikenomad, an MTB travel agency in Slovenia, and created numerous unique projects, including Underground Biking in the abandoned Mežica mine.

In 2007, together with his family, he embarked on a new adventure, transforming the Koroš Eco-Farm in Jamnica into Bike Base - Ecohotel Koroš and developing Single Trail Park Jamnica. Since then, Koroška has become one of the top MTB destinations in Europe.

His travel experiences, spanning from Europe to Africa and Asia, and his MTB explorations across Slovenia, Croatia, Austria, Italy, France, the United Kingdom, Iceland, Macedonia, Nepal, Morocco, and Iran, have given him a broad global perspective. This allows him to offer guests truly unique tours and expert advice on the best MTB destinations.

For Dixi, mountain biking is more than just a sport – it is a way of life. His passion lies in discovering new trails, building tracks, and exploring the world on two wheels. After more than 30 years in MTB tourism, he remains committed to the responsible and sustainable development of mountain biking.

Riding trails and the "All-mountain" style remain his main passion, but if there is no other way, he will enjoy gravel and tarmac as well.
