Riding up to Mangart Saddle on old WW1 jeep roads used to fortify the pass. It’s narrow for cars, but perfect for bikes! . It’s one of several mega climbs (it’s the highest road) in Slovenia’s Julian Alps, and it’s a one-way trip. Meaning, after a hearty bowl of cabbage and sausage stew, there’s a wicked fast, full of switchbacks descent back to Bovec! . The views are out of this world, with a short hike at the top to see over to the other side of the mountain. . The reward for a big day of riding? The smoked meat sharing tray at hotelboka . #feeslovenia #ifeelslovenia #julianalps #bigclimbs #fastdescents #alpinecycling #gravelbikes #tunnels #cycling #explorebybike #sponsored
