Below you’ll find a detailed day-by-day breakdown. Each riding day is adapted to weather, trail conditions and the skills of the group. Flexibility is key — the goal is always the best possible riding experience.
Day 1 – Arrival | BIKENOMAD BIKE BASE – ECOHOTEL KOROŠ

A short morning shuttle brings us to the Podpeca area — another location shaped by Enduro World Series heritage. Riding along exposed yet safe ridgelines above the valley, we follow historic paths once used by miners. Rolling terrain, sustained descents and constant technical variety define the day.
To finish, we experience the Black Hole Trail — a truly unique All-Mountain / Enduro ride through an old mine, reserved for expert riders and unlike anything else in Europe.

Today we ride one of the longest continuous flow trails in Europe, located in the Petzen MTB Zone. A long, uninterrupted descent where rhythm, speed control and line choice come together perfectly.
For riders seeking an extra challenge, the legendary Thriller EWS Trail delivers steep, fast and demanding sections — one of the most iconic enduro lines in the region. Cable car support is used when available; shuttle alternatives are always possible.
After lunch, a scenic transfer across the Slovenian Alps leads us toward the Soča Valley, with an optional short stop at Lake Bled for coffee and the famous Bled cake.

Ride: Flow trail and challenging singletrails
Flexibility: Lift or shuttle support depending on conditions
Dinner recommendations are provided individually in the Kobarid area, known for excellent local restaurants and fine dining.

Matajur and Kolovrat are legendary border mountains between Slovenia and Italy. We ride selected sections of the Matajur area, crossing into Italy on long, panoramic alpine trails. After lunch, a shuttle brings us back to the Kolovrat ridge to explore World War I fortifications before finishing with a final descent back into the valley.
In the late afternoon, we transfer south to the Vipava Valley.

Dinner reflects the Mediterranean character of the Vipava Valley, featuring locally produced food and wines.

A final riding day with a completely different character. Starting high on the Dinaric forest plateau above our hotel, we ride long trails toward the Vipava Valley. As we descend, views open toward the Adriatic Sea, the Karst and Istria before finishing among Mediterranean vineyards. Local enthusiasts’ trails allow us to extend the ride if desired, ending with lunch in the historic Roman town of Ajdovščina.
A shuttle brings us back for a farewell dinner with local specialties and a tasting of regional wines.
Feel: Transition · long descent · satisfaction

THE IDEA BEHIND THIS TOUR
This tour is built for riders who still crave real trails.
Not bike-park laps.
Not ticking destinations off a list.
But the feeling of being fully present on a perfectly chosen descent, in terrain that rewards focus, line choice and experience.
Epic Single Trails of Slovenia is a carefully curated journey through the few regions where legal, high-quality singletrail riding truly exists. Every day is shaped by local knowledge, conditions and group dynamics — not by a fixed script.
You ride when it makes sense. You recover when it matters. And every descent feels earned.
THE RIDES – CHOSEN WITH INTENTION
Slovenia offers many trails — but only a handful of regions allow multiple epic trail days in a row.
We focus exclusively on places where:
- trail quality outweighs quantity
- flow develops naturally from the terrain
- climbs feel purposeful
- descents reward commitment and timing
Trail Kingdom Koroška with Jamnica & Petzen, the Soča Valley and the Vipava region are not random stops — they are approved BIKENOMAD bases, selected through decades of riding experience.
LOCAL GUIDES – THE KEY TO FLEXIBILITY
Each riding region is guided by local trail experts.
This allows us to:
- choose the best trails for today
- adapt routes to weather and group ability
- avoid crowded or compromised lines
- keep riding fluid, safe and engaging
Timing is everything — and locals know it best.
