OUR MISSION

Members of Golovec Trails MTB club build and maintain top-quality mountain biking trails that not only provide an unforgettable experience for cyclists, but also promote the development of mountain biking tourism in Ljubljana. We are committed to educating youth, other interested visitors and trail builders, encouraging a passion for active lifestyles and sustainable management of nature.

OUR VISION

To become the first European capital with official mountain bike routes in urban area. We want to be a driving force and an example of the sustainable development of mountain biking culture in the urban forest, which is included in the daily life of the inhabitants and attracts visitors from Ljubljana, other Slovenian places and abroad.

OUR

TRAILS

Before you hit the trails, explore them on the map or on the website Trailforks.com. The trails are classified into different levels of difficulty. We advise you to start cycling on easier routes and increase the difficulty when you feel ready.

Trails are available and free to access, yet they don't develop or maintain themselves. Show the support in one of the following ways.

Currently, about 8 kilometers of legal MTB trails have been built. The main entry point to the Golovec trails is at the end of the Hudourniška street. If you use a car to access Golovec, we recommend parking at Urban Ring Hotel.

After the ride, we recommend a refreshing drink and a snack in the Cmokač restaurant (Urban Ring Hotel). By doing this, you support our local partners, and in return you can wash your bike and park your car for free.

TEAMBUILDINGS

We organize a fun day on bikes for you in Golovec or anywhere else in Slovenia. Nothing bonds a team like trying new adrenaline-pumping activities together. Our program is adapted to your wishes, while at the same time we guarantee a good atmosphere and, of course, safety. The events are suitable for complete beginners as well as advanced riders.

MTB school for children

Year-round mountain biking school for children from the age of 8, which takes place at Golovec and other locations once or twice a week.

Take care of your trails and cleaning campain 2025

The story and existence of the Golovec trails park is strongly connected with these large work actions, which we organized twice a year. Without these campaigns, we wouldn't have such organized routes and a large and connected community. ⚒
In April, it's time again for all of us to meet in large numbers at Golovec and arrange the trails as necessary. Just like last year, in cooperation with ČS Rudnik, we will also prepare a cleaning campaign of our beloved forest at the same time.
