RIDE THE BALKANS
Three ways to ride the Balkans with us. Pick the one that matches how you want to travel. Every route is one we’ve personally ridden and mapped across Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia, Montenegro and Albania.
Our flagship Adventure. Fly in. Gear up. Ride. We take care of everything else.
A true all-in expedition, built around your group, riding level and ambitions. We tailor the route, terrain and daily stages, prepare the motorcycles, arrange the accommodation, and provide two experienced guides and a 4×4 support vehicle carrying your luggage, tools, spares and a replacement motorcycle to keep the journey moving. No logistics. No lost riding days.
Just your expedition, built around you, all the way to the finish.
Ride up through the Balkans and take part in the Quest Series navigation challenge on the way. Fourteen days from Albania back to Slovenia, combining a supported expedition with our flagship event, GPS navigation, team riding and the best terrain the region has to offer.
Your own trip, at your own pace. We build a personal GPX route from tracks we've ridden ourselves, arrange the bike and the key logistics, and hand you the file and full trip notes. Ride solo, as a pair or with friends, a round trip from Slovenia into the Balkan countries and terrain you choose.
ADVENTURE TOURS
Multi-day guided tours along the most beautiful Balkan trails, untouched nature, local culture and roads you won’t find on a map. Fixed days and guided from the best in the business.
A raw adventure through the Dalmatian hinterland, where stone meets sky. Over 400 km on a circular route from Obrovac across Velebit and Tulove Grede to Knin, through the Dinara mountains to Sinj, and back over the Svilaja plateau and Krka canyons. Four nights in ***/**** hotels and B&Bs with half board, two difficulty groups led by experienced guides, and easier detours on the hardest sections. Not for beginners, but built for riders chasing a real challenge, on a SOFT or HARD track.
Jump from island to island across the Kvarner archipelago. Over 350 km of deserted trails and sea views with a full day on Krk, a ferry to Cres, then down to Lošinj and the highest peak of the Kvarner islands, before looping back through Cres toward Istria. Two nights in ***/**** hotels with half board, ferries included, two guided difficulty groups. Difficulty 3/5, ridden as a SOFT or HARD track.
The most complete of our tours, fully all-inclusive, with a support vehicle carrying your luggage. Over 350 km through Istria: a 3-hour enduro training on day one, then south to Cape Kamenjak and north across Mount Učka, on winding roads, wide gravel and quiet backtrails. Two nights at the 4★ Valamar Sanfior in Rabac, all meals included, plus Istrian specialities like truffles, prosciutto and local cheese. Suitable from beginner (SOFT 2/5) to experienced (HARD 3/5).
MOTORCYCLE RENTAL
Rent one of our expedition-ready adventure bikes and join an organised trip, or let us prepare a journey just for you. From €150/day per bike, with rider gear available.
A modern, rally-style single: light, nimble and easy to place exactly where you want it when the trail turns technical. The most agile bike in our fleet and the most forgiving when the going gets rough. Prepared with soft luggage, tools and essential spares (available as an add-on), so you can fly in and ride. Three units available, more on request for larger groups.
A friendly, low-seat dual-sport that builds confidence fast. Perfect for lighter, off-road-focused days and for riders newer to adventure terrain: predictable, reliable and easy to manage from morning to evening. Two units available.
A big single with real punch for riders who want to cover ground and mix fast asphalt with gravel. Best suited to experienced riders who know how to handle the extra power and weight. One unit available.
TRAININGS
From your first off-road kilometres to full control: range drills and guided ride-outs for every level. Knowledge you can put straight into practice on the Balkan trails.
Start on a private training ground with technical drills: obstacles, balance, braking and riding over rough ground, with instructors alongside you every step. Then put it straight into practice on a mix of gravel roads and optional technical sections, with an easier line always available. Built for everyone from first-timers to experienced riders, lunch and drinks included.
The next step after training day. A full day out on real trails in a small group of up to three riders, reinforcing everything from the range and applying it in real situations. This is where you take on more technical terrain, build confidence and turn new skills into instinct, with individual coaching along the way.
A social ADV weekend at Camp Velenje and the Šoštanj Moto Park, built around responsible riding. Sharpen your technique with group range drills (low-speed control, slalom, tight U-turns, standing riding, braking on low grip), pick up hands-on workshops (tyre and tube changes, suspension and clutch setup, luggage and gear prep), then enjoy a skills challenge and evening program with fellow riders. Two nights of camping, dinners and Saturday lunch included, for beginners through experienced riders.
QUEST SERIES
An international adventure enduro navigation challenge across the Balkans by ADV Spirit. Not a race, not a tour: teams navigate their own route through wild, unspoiled country. A new country every year.
Every team gets a printed map with multiple adventure GPX loops and 40+ GPS coordinates. Each morning you plan your own strategy, choosing which routes to ride and which locations to reach, so no two teams experience the Quest the same way. Everyone returns to the same basecamp with a different story to tell. Your route, your pace, your adventure.
The 2027 edition heads to Pukë, a remote town in northern Albania surrounded by hills, lakes and canyons, and the gateway to roughly 10,000 km² of wild riding. From Monday 14 to Saturday 19 June 2027: four days of pure riding and exploration, plus an optional Quest Ride Out day. Selected trails, scenic passes and routes you will not find on any tourist map.
Quest Series is about sharing the ride, not chasing a clock. Bring your crew and take on the adventure in teams of 3 to 6, at a moderate pace, with time to pause and connect with local people and culture. Open to adventure enduro, hard enduro and dual-sport motorcycles, for explorers who want real navigation, teamwork and like-minded company.
