A unique cycling experience through abandoned mine tunnels.

Underground cycling in Peca

How about a ride from one valley to another, several hundred metres below the summit of Peca?

Cyclists explore the branching underground tunnels during the ride.

Mountain bikes are made for enjoying the mountains, and in Koroška it is also possible to cycle through them—underground. How about a ride from one valley to another, several hundred metres below the summit of Peca, through abandoned and mysterious mining tunnels?

How does the adventure unfold?
1. Cyclists are welcomed at the Peca Underground and Karavanke Geopark Info Centre at Glančnik in Mežica.
2. Underground cycling in Peca is only possible with a guide.
3. The tour starts at the mine entrance at Igrčevo above Črna na Koroškem.
4. The unique underground cycling route follows safe tunnels of the abandoned mine and climbs by only about 15 metres.
5. In the mine, you will of course also stop and listen to the most hidden stories of Koroška’s underground.
6. After completing the underground route and exiting the mine at Breg above Mežica, there is only a 1.5 km descent along an asphalt mountain road back to the starting point at Glančnik.  

An unforgettable ride through the mysterious tunnels of the former mine.
Cycling through underground tunnels where miners once worked.
