Itinerary description

A nice walk through pretty country lanes, with a final descent through forest.

If you want to do this and return to the start point, I recommend doing it in reverse and starting at Jovanja so you start with a sharp ascent and end with a sharp descent. Otherwise you go straight down and then up again on the same path in the middle of your hike.

There are lots and lots of paths cutting across each other on this hike. Once or twice I took the wrong one and backtracked - no need for you to repeat these mistakes!

Be prepared for some mud if you go after rain. We did this hike on a snowy day and it was fine.
