Hard mountain bike ride. Very good fitness required. Advanced riding skills necessary. The starting point of the route is right next to a parking lot.

Gravel beach on the Soča River

Highlight • Beach

A great route on gravel, pebbles, and sand alongside the Soca River, with several opportunities to pause directly on the banks and enjoy a close encounter with the Soca.
IMPORTANT: The route has been completely "cyclist-friendly" in recent months; many very difficult sections have been completely improved, some even paved with concrete. Riding a mountain bike is easier than riding a regular bike. The route from Bovec to Magozd is a great cycling route alongside the Soca River.

Stari Hrami Hunting Lodge and Water Trough, Bovec

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Here you will find one of the few opportunities to replenish your water reserves and enjoy the view of the Soča Valley. Just a few meters after the hunting lodge (not managed) is the entrance to the second part of the Stol Trail on the left. The last two kilometers of ascent to the crest of the Stol are rewarded with a fantastic panoramic view.

Mount Stol Gravel Switchback Descent

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

I drove up the route with the gravel bike and treadless tires. Go, but it's a total cramp!

Two recommendations from my experience:
1. Take a MTB
2. Use tires with a lot of profile and little tire pressure

Anything else is no fun. But the route is super awesome and you have a great view!

Wrong road at the start, Avoid the section next to the Isonzo... you push your bike up steep steps

Great ride today in mtb with friends with a sparkling air. First part quite demanding then technical section suitable for everyone. Some km of asphalt for transfer but always satisfying parsing.

Warning: the ascent from Borjana to the Stol Pass offers the worst 900m of elevation I have ever ridden!!! - deep, rough gravel between large, solid boulders!!!

Having set off from Caporetto at eight and having reached the top after two and a half hours, we were not spared the great heat due to the sun that beat down on the whole white road. Experience to be repeated in October 😊

Ascent to the Stol difficult without food. No pastures on the way, lonely passage. Pure nature. Long descent on gravel road.

We start from the Italy/Slovenia border and arrive at Caporetto (kobarid) and continue towards Plesso (Bovec) on asphalt, and turn left to go to Uccea towards the Italy/Slovenia border.
At the border turn left and take the forest road all in the shade up to Stoll.
Once at the top the view is stunning. Worth …
