MOUNTAIN
LOVE

A wooden crucifix mounted on a stand with flowers at the base, set against a mountainous landscape of the Dolomites with pine forests and clouds in the sky.

Over seven unforgettable days, Mountain Love takes you point-to-point across the Julian Alps into the Dolomites, concluding in the alpine city of Bolzano.

Journey Details

From Slovenia’s emerald valleys to Italy’s jagged Dolomites, this is a fully supported journey of mountain roads, timeless beauty, and the joy of cycling through two of Europe’s most breathtaking worlds.

Our adventure begins in Kranj, at the foot of the Julian Alps, where quiet roads and unspoiled landscapes invite you to slow down and connect with the rhythm of the road. As the journey unfolds, the terrain grows ever more dramatic, carrying you across borders and cultures to the iconic landscapes of the Dolomites, where cycling history lives on every switchback.

More than just a cycling journey, this is a soulful passage across borders, mountains, and cultures — an experience that will stay with you long after the last descent.

I matured as a cyclist — not just by bagging the big climbs but by paying attention to the little things.

Route Details

Fully supported, the route is a blend of discovery and legend: discovering quiet Slovenian climbs still largely unknown to the wider cycling world, before taking on the iconic passes of the Dolomites — Zoncolan, Tre Cime di Lavaredo, Giau and beyond. Each day balances effort and reward: challenging climbs, sweeping descents, and moments of awe as you pause to take in the scale of the grand landscape.
