Koroška

From the sky to the the center of the earth.

Koroška is one of Slovenia's most mountainous regions. It is characterised by the whiteness of the rocks and the soft slopes of the Alpine foothills, which along with the green of the forests give it its characteristic appearance.


The forests of Koroška are deep and dark and they are criss-crossed by cart tracks and forest paths. Many trails follow ridges, with the best views into the valleys.


You will not find great crowds of bikers here, and therefore your experience of unspoilt nature will be all the more genuine.

Higher mountains

From Jamnica we go further south, the mountains get higher and the valleys deeper. The climbs get longer but also the descents. We find exciting trails that follow long and scenic ridges down into the valleys. Find the trail here


Ridges

Black Hole Trail

The Black Hole Trail is a special challenge, even for the most skilled mountain bikers. It runs through abandoned tunnels of the Mežica mine. From the day it closed down to the day they started setting up the trail, no human foot stepped into these tunnels. The vast halls were once filled with tons and tons of lead ore. More about the trail here.


Over five horizons it descents for about 150 metres. Now and then you will encounter very interesting sections, where you can relax for a moment and soak in the endless blackness of the great halls. Of course, if any section is too difficult, you can always conquer it on foot.


Bike Park Poseka

But lets get back to the surface, to the small bike park of Poseka. It is just outside of Ravne na Koroškem with two different routes available – Šnel Pepi Flow and Enduro Bavči. Both are short but fun and on the easier side. Find the trails here.
