Bike tour design
Bike tours in the Municipality of Jesenice are designed as round trips that cater to various target groups – from families to recreational cyclists and last, but not least, more demanding mountain biking enthusiasts. Each tour is diverse and interesting because of its panoramic views and particular attractions along the way, and they all include a gastronomic experience.
Criteria are set for determining the difficulty level, panorama and fitness level for each tour. The difficulty level takes into account tour length, difference in elevation, riding time, ascent and descent complexity, and the terrain. Panorama is evaluated on the basis of the visual experience and views along the way, and the fitness level is determined from the position of an average recreational cyclist and the effort required to complete each tour. The orientation difficulty mark is provided since the orientation difficulty level of the tours can vary depending on directional signalling along the route, roadless areas, and numerous crossroads and branch-offs. By description with *, means one * easy, ***** means difficult. Asphalt is marked with full line, gravel with dashed line.
Cycling connections in the Jesenice area are marked with unified red symbols, and mountain bike routes are marked with blue signs and mountain bike route blazes.
