Cycle even when it’s cold

Are you a passionate cyclist who doesn’t like to put your bike away when it gets cold outside? You don't have to. You can choose warmer cycling gear or head where it stays warm when the weather turns chilly elsewhere. Popular cycling destinations in Slovenia where you can extend the cycling season late into autumn or even into winter can primarily be found in the Mediterranean, Karst and Pannonian areas. And that’s not all. As these are mostly wine regions, you can also treat yourself to a delicious stopover in a wine cellar or an agritourism farm. Do not hesitate - hop on your bicycle and ride into autumn.
