The Trans Karavanke Mountain Bike Trail runs from Jezersko to the Tromeja, and can also be cycled in the opposite direction. It mainly runs on forest roads on the sunny Karavanke slopes; it climbs up to the ridge and border with Austria only on its further western point at Peč or Tromeja. It offers amazing views and adventures in unspoiled nature. It is suitable for very fit mountain bikers. The Valvasorjev dom pod Stolom–Mojstrana stage runs through the Municipality of Jesenice.
Careful! Cattle stay on the pastures in the summer months, which is why all visitors must close the gates behind them and avoid startling animals with aggressive riding.
