Mark & Kimberly
October 04, 2025
For our honeymoon we plan to bikepack through Slovenia, Croatia, and then take the train to France to see the Tour de France. Our "cash funds" below are for some upgrades and experiences that would make our trip more fun & better fueled.The Slovenian route will be loosely based on the Slovenia West Bikepacking Loop through the Triglav Alps (https://bikepacking.com/routes/bikepacking-slovenia/). Being half Slovenian/Croatian, Kimberly has visited her family in Slovenia multiple times and has lots of ideas for fun additions to fill up a full 3-4 weeks of biking and exploring. Funds are set up under Venmo (no fee), with an option at the end to use a credit card (with fee).Hover over to read the captions!
