A British-run mountain holiday company called Jasna Adventures has launched a number of holiday packages for cyclists and families this summer.
Guided rides include uplifted downhill and cross country for mountain bikers and guided group options for road cyclists. including accommodation in the company’s Dragon’s Lair chalet.
The Tatras Mountain range run across northeastern Europe and Jasna Adventures are located in northern Slovakia.
“The area is an ideal base and an alternative to the Alps for cyclists that want to try something a little new and different, and away from the usual crowds,” said Justin Garrett, Co-founder of Jasna Adventures.
It’s a popular area amongst locals, with an established bike park providing lift-accessed downhill mountain biking as well as huge opportunities for single track cross country and enduro style riding. Options for road cycling include a number of loops from the chalet as well as van transfer options, with a variety of routes available for all levels, including long climbs and more gentle rides with plenty of ‘refreshment’ stops.
“Summer here in Jasna is fantastic and it offers so much for anyone looking for different types of cycle experiences or mountain activities, but at a lower cost than the Alps,” continued Justin, who added, “The region already has a good reputation but more and more people are starting to discover it – although for British visitors it’s still a bit of a ‘hidden gem’. We have put some specific cycle packages together but also offer bespoke options – including options for cycling clubs, which can save 15% with whole chalet room rates for groups of 10 or more people.”
