Medjimurje is the perfect place for bicycle tourism. Since it is a relatively small region, cyclists can choose various thematic tours passing through different terrains. They complete a tour in one day or a couple of hours according to their preferences and how fit they are. The cycling routes are marked mostly on paved side roads with little traffic or well maintained gravel roads. They pass through amazing landscape and connect various cultural-historical monuments, restaurants, wine houses, inns, rest stops and viewpoints. Elevation profile of the routes is mostly mild and appropriate for all generations.
The cycling routes run along the rivers Mura and Drava and they continue on Austrian and Slovenian routes (Murradweg R2, Drauradweg R1) - Mura-Drava.bike. The routes are marked with signs, info panels and rest stops on paved local roads. Off-road tours are arranged on gravel roads. www.mura-drava-bike.com
