V Breginjski kot

Trasa V Breginjski kot je letos ponovno na sporedu, je pa tako lepa, da jo ni za izpustiti. Vodi nas namreč v najbolj zahodni del Slovenije. Kot vedno sledimo načelu, da poteka pa po nekaterih cestah in krajih, ki jih ne vozimo najbolj pogosto, za večino udeležencev pa bo večina ali vsaj del trase popolna novost.

Opis trase:

Štart bo v Prvačini, konkretno pred domom Krajevne skupnosti v samem centru. To je manjši kraj na Primorskem, v lepi Vipavski dolini, kjer češnje že na polno cvetijo.

Štartamo v smeri Nove Gorice in kmalu vstopimo v Italijo. Večinoma ravninska trasa nas kmalu pripelje v čarobno starodavno mesto Čedad, kjer bo na ikoničnem kamnitem mostu čez reko Nadižo, ki se mu reče tudi ”Hudičev most”, prva kontrolna točka. Tu se nam ponuja čudovit razgled na rečno sotesko.

Nadaljujemo desno po dolini reke Nadiže in kmalu ponovno vstopimo v Slovenijo. V kraju Kred gremo levo, v Bojani pa se na razcepu ponovno držimo leve in se spustimo v dolino. Od tu dalje nas čaka kar nekaj vzpenjanja, ki pa je le na redkih krajih bolj strm. Peljemo mimo Napoleonovega mosta. Na naslednjem razpotju zavijamo levo v smeri Robidišča, ki je majhna, odmaknjena vas v zahodnem delu Slovenije in najbolj zahodno stalno naselje v Sloveniji. Druga kontrolna točka je le malo naprej, in sicer na maji med Slovenijo in Italijo.

Vrnemo se do prejšnjega razpotja in nadaljujemo levo. Spust v dolino nas pripelje do razgledne točke v kanjonu reke Nadiže. Sledi vzpon po serpentinah. Na naslednjem razpotju zavijemo leto. Še nekaj krajšega vzpona in spust do naslednje mejne točke med Slovenijo in Italijo in najbolj zahodne točke Slovenije, kjer je tudi tretja kontrolna točka.

Vrnemo se po isti poti, na razcepu gremo ponovno levo skozi kraj Breginj in kmalu pridemo v Kobarid, kjer je pri kostnici, kjer so pokopani posmrtni ostanki več kot 7000 italijanskih vojakov iz prve svetovne vojne, četrta kontrolna točka.

Od tu nas pot vodi proti Tolminu. Še prej, še v Kobaridu, gremo ponovno preko še enega Napoleonovega mosta preko reke Soče. Do Tolmina gremo po neprometni cesti po levem bregu Soče, tam pa se priključimo kolesarski stezi, ki nas tik ob Soči pripelje do Mosta na Soči. Izjemna narava, … Sledi krajši vzpon in nekaj kasneje vožnja po glavni cesti (upamo, da ne bo preveč prometna!), ki pa jo pred Ročinjem zapustimo in preko še enega kamnitega mosta čez reko Sočo pridemo v kraj Avče in po lepem spustu še v Kanal ob Soči. Tu ponovno prečkamo Sočo, nadaljujemo po neprometni cesti in kmalu pridemo do kolesarske povezave, ki nas pripelje v Novo Gorico.

Od tu nas do cilja nas čaka le še malo nezahtevnih kilometrov, ki pa se nam bodo vlekli v nedogled.

V cilju pa seveda rečemo tisto znamenito: ”To pa je bila čista uživancija!”.

Po prihodu v cilj sledi večerja in druženje v lokalu Sokol, ki je na lokaciji štarta in cilja.

To the Breginj Valley

The route to the Breginj Valley is on the schedule again this year, and it’s so beautiful that you shouldn’t miss it. It takes us to the westernmost part of Slovenia. As always, we’re sticking to the principle of taking routes through roads and places we don’t drive on very often, so for most participants, the majority or at least part of the route will be completely new.

Route description:

The start will be in Prvačina, specifically in front of the local community center in the village center. It’s a small place in the Vipava Valley, where cherry trees are already in full bloom.

We set off towards Nova Gorica and soon cross into Italy. The mostly flat route quickly brings us to the charming historic town of Cividale del Friuli, where the first checkpoint will be on the iconic stone bridge over the Nadiža River, also known as the “Devil’s Bridge.” Here, we are rewarded with a stunning view of the river gorge.

We continue right along the Nadiža valley and soon re-enter Slovenia. In the village of Kred we turn left, and in Bojana we keep left again at the fork and descend into the valley. From here on, there is quite a bit of climbing ahead, though only rarely very steep. We pass by Napoleon Bridge. At the next junction, we turn left towards Robidišče, a small remote village in western Slovenia and the westernmost permanently inhabited settlement in the country. The second checkpoint is just a bit further on, right at the border between Slovenia and Italy.

We return to the previous junction and continue left. A descent into the valley brings us to a viewpoint above the Nadiža canyon. This is followed by a climb along switchbacks. At the next junction, we turn left again. After a short climb and descent, we reach another border point between Slovenia and Italy — the westernmost point of Slovenia — where the third checkpoint is located.

We retrace our route, turn left again at the junction, pass through Breginj, and soon arrive in Kobarid. The fourth checkpoint is at the Kobarid Ossuary, where the remains of more than 7,000 Italian soldiers from World War I are buried.

From here, the route leads towards Tolmin. Still in Kobarid, we cross another Napoleon Bridge over the Soča River. We continue to Tolmin along a quiet road on the left bank of the Soča, then join a cycling path that runs right along the river and takes us to Most na Soči. Stunning nature all around… A short climb follows, and later we ride along the main road (hopefully not too busy!), which we leave before Ročinj. Crossing yet another stone bridge over the Soča, we reach Avče and then descend pleasantly to Kanal ob Soči. Here we cross the Soča again, continue along a quiet road, and soon join a cycling route that leads us back to Nova Gorica.

From there, only a few easy kilometers remain to the finish — though they will likely feel endless.

And at the finish line, we’ll surely say that famous line: “That was pure enjoyment!”

After finishing, dinner and socializing will follow at the Sokol venue, located at both the start and finish area.
