NOT INCLUDED
The Caledonia Way is Scotland’s newest long-distance cycling route, offering an unparalleled journey through the Scottish Highlands and the country's most breathtaking landscapes.
Officially completed in 2016, this 234-mile (376 km) route was developed as part of the National Cycle Network to create a safe, scenic, and cyclist-friendly corridor from the Kintyre Peninsula to Inverness.
Designed to showcase Scotland’s wild beauty and rich history, the Caledonia Way follows a mix of quiet coastal roads, dedicated cycle paths, and historic canal towpaths, making it one of the most rewarding and accessible multi-day rides in the UK.
As you ride north, you’ll follow the path of Scotland’s ancient travelers, passing through landscapes shaped by Viking settlers, Highland clans, and early engineers who carved the Caledonian Canal through the heart of the Great Glen, where it begins to follow the Great Glen Way.
Whether you’re an experienced long-distance cyclist or simply looking for an unforgettable adventure, this is the ultimate ride through Scotland’s wild and beautiful landscapes.
We believe that cycling the Caledonia Way should be about adventure, not logistics. That’s why we take care of everything – so you can focus on the road ahead. We book comfortable accommodations, provide a detailed digital guidebook with GPS routes and local recommendations, and offer round-the-clock support to make your journey stress-free.

First class company with a well planned route, great accommodation and simply outstanding support in time of trouble. We did a two week ride from Bled to Pula in September 2023. Fair to say we hit a lot of problems courtesy of BA with rescheduled and diverted flights, lost bags, problems with our own bikes, returning rental bikes and more. Daja was simply amazing in helping us sort all of them out and was so accessible at all hours. She even managed to source and buy a forgotten Thru-axle and deliver it personally to our hotel, which is far and above any service i would reasonably expect. Thank you !! Our accommodation was fantastic and far better than expected in all but one location. The route planning in Slovenia was great but due to our decision to bring road bikes from the UK and the nature of the roads in Croatia, our second week was a bit tricky route wise and it would have been good to have had a discussion about this section beforehand. A Gravel bike is far better suited to Croatia although this was our decision to bring road bikes. Transport arrangement and logistics were flawless. Overall, i would change very little and we will definitely be returning to Slovenia. Daja was fantastic and I absolutely recommend Slovenia Cycling Holidays and will be using their services again.
Top Company, Top Tour ! We did the 7 days tour (from Alps to Adriatic), from Bled to Piran in august 2024 ! It was the best tour made in years. Amazing landscapes and nature, great accommodations and food and perfectly organised. Daja did really a perfect job ! she was allways available for questions or suggestions ! I would recommend this tour to everyone.
