A documentary cycling trip through green Slovenia

Get to know what the sustainable path of Slovenia is like in person through the eyes of locals, representatives of destinations and tourist providers.

A documentary that makes you think only green

You probably already know our green Slovenia. And even if you don't, you now have the opportunity to discover in an empirical way through a promotional documentary why Slovenia was the first country in the world to get the title of a green destination as a whole. You will learn that it is truly green. Literally, in the colours of its endless forests and meadows, and figuratively, in the effort of the locals for it to remain so.

The young Slovenian actor Aliash Tepina rolled up his sleeves, hopped on his bicycle and, in the company of a film crew, shot a half-hour documentary that takes you to all "corners" of our green story along the cycling paths of the Slovenia Green Gourmet Route. As seen by locals, destination representatives and tourism providers who have taken the sustainable route. Are you ready for a ride with us? Let's go!

Our plan was to keep the film shorter, but after the shooting ended, it turned out that it really needs to be longer for the story to develop nicely. A sustainable rhythm needs more space than some standard promotional content.
