Last year, the ROD Ajdovščina Regional Development Agency launched a pilot seasonal bus and van transport service for cyclists within the Inter Bike III project. The bus route was cross-border, connecting Ajdovščina and Cividale del Friuli. The van route, on the other hand, was a local service between the Vipava Valley and Predmeja. Summer transport services for cyclists and hikers will continue this year as well, though with a few changes. Two local van lines will be available: one between Ajdovščina and Predmeja, and another between Ajdovščina, Vipava, and Nanos. Both will make it easier for passengers to bridge the elevation difference between the Vipava Valley and the plateau above it.
The shuttle service between Ajdovščina and Predmeja will begin operating on June 25, 2026. It will run once daily on Thursdays and three times daily on Sundays. The shuttle service between Ajdovščina, Vipava, and Nanos will begin operating on June 26, 2026. It will run once daily on Wednesdays and three times daily on Saturdays.
More detailed information is available on the website www.bike-alpeadria.eu, where you will also find descriptions and routes for cross-border and local cycling trails.
Both services are co-financed as part of the STARWAYS project, under the GO! 2025 Small Projects Fund of the Interreg VI-A Italy-Slovenia 2021-2027 Program, managed by EZTS GO.
