Between Luče and Podvolovljek

A narrow road runs along a small stream. No villages, just hamlets and an old mill. The climb to the pass begins from Podvolovljek.

Volovjek Pass or Kranjski Rak

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Volovljek Pass at 1029 m above sea level is a small alpine pass in Lower Styria in the Kamnik Alps.
Small, quiet street, note the opening hours of the restaurant on the pass.
Unfortunately closed when we arrived.

Velika Planina Plateau

Highlight • Viewpoint

One of the highlights of riding in Slovenia for me, incredible views where you feel really close to the mountains. Gravel roads litter the plateau area with views for miles.

Velika Planina Descent

Velika Planina is the site of one of Europe's few surviving high mountain herdsmen's villages where traditional Alpine herdsmen's culture is still alive during the months of June to September. The pasture comprises around 140 huts of a very characteristic architecture.
