CYCLING IN THE AREA - OŠTERIJA BRANIK

The Vipava valley is a wonderful region for cycling of all kinds! We have prepared three cycling routes for you, which start with us and are suitable for cycling with mountain and electric bicycles, which you can rent from us. The easiest of them is also suitable for cycling with children.

Family

Along the river Branica

This bike path takes you through the valley of the river Branica. You will cycle with a view of the mighty Rihemberk Castle and turn onto a macadam path in front of the village of Saksid. Past the confluence of the Branica and Vipava rivers, you will round off the trail through Dornberk, where the are possibilities for refreshment. You return to Ošterija Branik along the already known route. At the top right you will also notice the village of Štanjel! Cycling is also suitable for children who are accustomed to cycling on the road with some traffic.

E-bike

The Vipava valley

This slightly longer cycling trip takes you across the Vipava hills to the Vipava valley . Views over the vineyards of Nanos , Gora and Čaven await you. You will cycle through the most beautiful wine-growing corners, visit the town of Vipava and continue along the side paths all the way to the Vipavski Križ! There is an ideal moment to stop and refresh at the bike point Darovi Vipavske . Back to Ošterija Branik you climb over Vrtovče, and then you can only easily cycle to the starting point. The trip is more varied and a real pleasure on electric bikes!

E-bike

The Karst

A cycling trip takes you to the Karst , which is famous for its stone, Teran and prosciutto. First you will cycle through the picturesque valley of the river Branica , which is a great warm-up for the main ascent of the day - the Iron Gate pass . There you will have beautiful views over the Vipava valley, all the way to the Alps. When you overcome the slope, you can calmly cycle through karst villages, where you can admire the skill of stonemasons in authentic karst architecture. Follow the side roads and macadam paths to the village of Štanjel , which deserves time for exploration. We suggest our cycling point Bar Zoro as a refreshment stop. The only thing waiting for you is the descent back to the Branica valley and you are already back in Ošterija Branik! Since the trip is varied, an electric bike will be most suitable choice!
