Mountain Biking Underground
People usually seek mountain biking enjoyment in the mountains, but the Slovanian mountain bike team in Bovec have found mountain biking trails through the mountains, along abandoned and mysterious tunnels under the Peca mountains. Boardnlodge offers a mountain bike guide and mountain biking gear for the 5km journey along illuminated paths from one valley to another, where you can enjoy unforgettable action sports holidays.
Mountain biking trails under the mountains of Slovenia are available to Boardnlodge guests eith the help of our guide. The tunnels are mining passages left by the Romans under the Peca mountains. These Bovec bike trails run for 5km through solid rock tunnels. Guests start at the hotel Club Krnes in Èrna na Koroškem, where the guide and mountain bike equipment will be waiting for you. The exit from the mountain bike mine is in another valley, from where you will descend along a 2km road to The Mining Museum at Glanènik, where the hired mountain bike gear should be returned and washed. Check out the mining collections in the museum, and then bike back to Èrna, along the Meža valley. In case of bad weather transfer could be arranged. The tunnels are 500m under the ground and the constant temperature is about 10C. Special equipment is demanded because of the complete darkness in the underground and due to miners safety law. It is obligatory to wear a bike helmet with a headlamp, which you can hire when paying the entrance fee. Long trousers, warm clothes with long sleeves, an anorak and pair of mountain bike gloves should be worn. More images: |
