All three trails rebuilt, building 2 new this year, best 2015 SloEnduro… and BBQ and beer all season long.
Snow has paused the good times in bike parks for a short while but the party goes on soon. We continue our stroll through Slovenian bike parks with Bike Fun & park Cerkno. It was first opened last year and probably nobody ever called it like that yet.
Cerkno can brag with its three courses, each from 1700 to 2800m of length at the 500 m elevation difference of the fast 6-seat chairlift Počivalo. And it’s never dull on top where the Alpine pearl restaurant is located.
Operation
Season opening is set for May 7th. No special party planned but they say they are working on a small surprise.
The park will be running every Saturday and Sunday from 10am to 5pm.
The Alpine pearl restaurant will be serving biker specials all season long. Read that as “barbecue and beer”.
Passes
Daily pass – 20€
4h pass – 15€
2h pass – 10€
Season pass – 150€
Single ride – 4€
Bad news and bad communication from the Bike Slovenia Summer Pass guys – Cerkno park is not included in the pass for the same reason as Javornik – it does not pay off because of weekend operation.
Equipment rental
Bike and safety gear rentals will not be available at the start of the season but they are working on it. They are also planning to build two new lines: the family style “Smooth Line” and the “DH Line”. Opening days not set yet.
The Pedal team crew has been responsible for trail building and maintenance since the beginning.

The cover photo could have been from anywhere but since Cerkno model Tadej Razpet is in it it is clear that it’s been shot on the same trail as the above video. The Cerkno Flow trail.
