From Bled: Self-Guided E-Bike Tour to Vintgar Gorge
Description
Discover the Vintgar Gorge on this popular and original self-guided 4-hour eBike tour from Bled. Ride an quality comfortable Scott Swiss made electric bike through the green, very hilly landscape and customize your tour to fit your interests. With the eBike you will zoom up the hills without a sweat! It will save you lots of time as well. You'll get off the e-bike and walk into the gorge, so there is hiking involved. The gorge follows a ONE-WAY trail, so you will not be able to return to your eBike parking spot via the same path. As the entry time for Vintgar is fixed, please ensure you arrive on time. If you are late, you will not be permitted to enter, and the responsibility will be yours. 4-hour self-guided eBike to Vintgar Gorge is from 9AM-1PM or 2:30PM-6:30PM. We started with this flagship tour of ours in 2013, so join many others who already have done this and were impressed by this unique way to experience this Triglav National Park's jewel.

We had a great time, bikes were easy to ride, instructions were very clear. We had rain, but still enjoyed
Pleasant e-bike experience. The shop owners were very thorough and helpful in giving directions and demonstrateing how to use the bike. The ride up the hill to the gorge was very easy with the pedal assist, and the gorge was in fact gorge-ous. Note for those taking a bus to Bled from Ljubljana for this: take an early bus (before 11am) and double check what the first stop is and use that one. Buses fill up and you may get passed by if you wait at a later stop.
Very happy with everything - nice staff, nice bikes and a lovely experience! The canyon itself was nice, but there were a lot of people. Lovely bike ride and hiking!
The gorge was spectacular and getting there on an e-bike made for a great experience. Bikes were fantastic, service was superb and we really enjoyed the day.
Nice try, we enjoy so much, Vintgar gorge is a nice travel point. The staffs in the tour company so friendly and nice. They explained to us how to get to the view point and how to use the e-bike very clearly. But 4 hours for us is just enough. Highly recommend!
We had a great time on our bike tour to Vintgar Groge. Wendy was so great at getting us set up and on our way and giving us multiple route options to take on our way back. She also gave us a great lunch spot recommendation. Highly recommend!
Their office is conveniently located in central Bled on the main road. The e-bike was easy to ride, and the ride itself was a scenic route. The “e” part of the bike came in very handy and made it easy to climb a hill. The gorge was temporarily closed for a hour when we arrived due to an accident. We called the tour company, and they were very understanding. They allowed us to go extend our time with no extra time, which we ended up not needing. The staff was extremely friendly! I would definitely book again with them if I return to Bled.
Great experience! Directions were super clear and you can take as long as you want on the hike and at the gorge. We loved it. Beautiful views and great exercise
It is a beautiful experience but it must be borne in mind that the time available forces you to go at a certain pace. First you do a bicycle ride, then you leave in the parking lot and from there you do the walking tour through the gorge. The first part is very relaxed and the scenery impressive but then you have to return through the forest and it is uphill. You reach the parking lot and turn by bike. The bikes are very simple and have gears. The initial explanations of the tour were great and gave us a map. They were very kind.
Impressive visit is easily reached from Ljubljana, less than an hour by car, worth buying tickets online, you can leave your car at the parking lots at a fixed cost of 5 euros and then reach the entrance by the gorge with buses, included in the price of the entrance ticket. Bring your parking ticket so you know where you left your car, to catch the bus back. The strictly walking ascent takes about thirty minutes with quite a bit of climbing, but it is worth it.
