These are the DH Planina in Planina v Podbo\u010dju, Kr\u0161ko, which opens the series on 18 May, and then the DH Poseka in the Bike Park Poseka in Ravne na Koro\u0161kem on 1 June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In July, the summer holidays will wait a bit due to one of the highlights of the season, the National Championships on the World Cup track in the Bike Park Pohorje in Maribor on 20 July.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Towards the end of August, out of the country for the first time: from the auner Austrian Gravity Series, this year we add the race on the Weissensee (White Lake) in Carinthia to the Slovenian Cup, which takes place on 23 August.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On 14 September, the classic DH Sor&#8217;ca on Sori\u0161ka planina will be held on a new date, and the final will be held again on Sljeme above Zagreb in Croatia on the first Sunday in October.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&#8220;Test Day&#8221; 2025: Joining Forces with SloEnduro<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before it all starts, we invite you to take part in the 20chocolate DH Cup Day Kamplc in Ajdov\u0161\u010dina on Saturday 22 March, which will take place together with the SloEnduro Day Kamplc. Timing will take place on one of the trails throughout the day, and shuttles will be provided to the start for a limited number of entries. So this year&#8217;s &#8220;test day&#8221; is a little different, but just as ideal for testing your bike and your body.
