Beneath the Gorjanci Hills: Ravnace

This idyllic cycling route takes you from the town centre and busy streets directly beneath the Gorjanci Hills. Here, the connection with local villages feels even more authentic, as you can admire the typical rural architecture of Bela Krajina. From Dol to Suhor, the route follows a main road, after which it continues past vineyards, fields and forests.
