Not Just a Pump Track, but a Presidential Pump Track: A Story of Adrenaline and Prestige


What do a former president, the largest ground pump track in Slovenia and your next unforgettable family vacation have in common? The answer lies in the heart of the Vipava Valley, right next to the entrance to our Hotel Termika. We're not talking about an ordinary cycling track. We're talking about the Presidential Pump Track.
A story with a unique stamp
When we designed experiences for our guests, we wanted to offer more than just infrastructure. We wanted to create a story. And we succeeded. Our pump track, carefully crafted from natural soil to blend in perfectly with its surroundings, is not only the largest of its kind in Slovenia. 1 Its uniqueness is recorded in history – the former President of Slovenia, Borut Pahor, was the first to ride its waves and curves. 1 This event was not just a protocol gesture; it was a confirmation that this is a space dedicated to encouraging an active spirit and the joy of movement. That is why we have respectfully named it the "Presidential Pump Track". This is a story that no one else can replicate, and we are proud to share it with you.
Adrenaline for all generations
You might be wondering what a "pump track" is. Imagine an endless loop of bumps and turns that you can overcome without pedaling - just by "pumping" your body up and down. It's completely safe, intuitive and incredibly fun. It's a playground where a five-year-old can feel like a champion on a scooter, a teenager can hone their skills, and parents can remember how fun simple movement can be. It's a place where the bond between generations is strengthened through laughter and overcoming challenges together.
Your starting point for cycling adventures
The Presidential Pump Track is just the beginning of your cycling odyssey at Hotel Termika. We are the ideal starting point for exploring the entire Vipava Valley on two wheels. You can rent a bike from us – from mountain bikes to electric bikes – and set off on:
- On a family trip: On safe, mostly flat paths along rivers and between villages.
- On a gourmet tour: With an electric bike to renowned wineries and tourist farms, where you will taste the authentic delicacies of the valley.
- On an adrenaline-fueled descent: Along the challenging paths and ruts of the mighty Trnovo Plateau, which rises above us.
After a day of presidential fun and exploring the valley, return to the embrace of Hotel Termika. While your bikes rest, you relax in our unique sand pool, treat yourself to a regenerative massage, and end the day with a superb dinner at Gostilna Termika. This is the "Active Wellness" cycle - the perfect balance between excitement and peace.
