Hi Bike Friend,

we prepared for you the following suggestion on how to get the most out of 6 days MTB in Slovakia. The first two days we will spend in Banska Bystrica area, which you might know from my webpage www.MTBguides.org. The riding here is a combination of effort and beautiful views in untouched nature and historical villages. One day we’ll ride in region of Banska Stiavnica, which is known for its famous connection to the nature and its mining history. Then we will go to the area of High Tatras. This mountain range is world unique. It’s impossible to bike here since the mountains are too steep and rocky but to do at least one ride in the foothills laying in front of these marvelous mountain range is simply a must. One day we ride in the area of the deepest forest in middle Europe known with the densest population of bears in Europe. The last very interesting spot for MTB is a rocky canyon near to a big dam lake north from Banska Bystrica.

The best of the best. The ultimate stage TOP. The real mountain Giro di Banska Bystrica. An allround ridge-tour of 150 km length. It requires a precise planning and a top-condition. I recommend dividing this tour in 3 days.

We can easily consider the surroundings of Banska Bystrica a mountainbike paradise. The town is located in a hollow literally surrounded by a mountain chain with various geography. In the west there is the severe ridge of the Kremnica Mountains with the dominant transmitter on Skalka. In the north, we have the massif of Krizna with its noticeable side ridges, then comes Kecka and Kozi chrbat in the massif of the Stare Hory Mountains. In the east dominates the striking Hrb ridge, which is considered to be the geographical centre of Slovakia. The southern edge of the tour is formed by the semi-meadowlike ridge Bukovina. It represents the southern edge of the Polana caldera – the prehistorical stratovolcano.
Banska Bystrica Koruna goes through all of these ridges and is lead clockwise.
