Around the Lipa Pass

500 m section steeply uphill - total ascent 850 m, max. gradient 22%. You may have to push the bike. 

The cycling path, marked with red signs V5, takes you from the center of Vransko to the right towards the Lipa Pass. The asphalt path climbs all the way past farms, through the village of Vologa, all the way to the Lipa Pass, where we turn left onto a dirt road. The path leads us to the secluded Jeseničnik farm, and in between we are treated to beautiful views. The path continues steeply uphill along a cart track (100 m), then the path flattens out and descends slightly towards Rovt pod Menino. The last few 100 m we climb again to the Lipa Pass and along the asphalted descent all the way to the Grof Hotel.
