Cyclists perceive nature and the landscape very differently to hikers. Nevertheless, the Juliana Bike circuit around the Julian Alps offers similar panoramas and insights into life in the Julian Alps as the footpaths of the Juliana Trail. The marked mountain bike circuit takes you along local roads, cycle paths, forest tracks or unpaved roads and demands respect for nature, plants, animals and other sensitive habitats as well as for the people who live sustainably in the protected UNESCO Man and Biosphere Reserve and the Triglav National Park.
