Cycle to a magnificent mountain plateau above Tabor

In Vransko we turn on a regional road and ride until the exit for Zaplanina. Scenic climb through wonderful valley brings us almost to Trojane, but we turn back towards Čemšeniška planina plateau just before. We continue cycling on a forest path towards Prvine ski resort until we reach Dom dr. Franc Golob mountain hut. We follow white and blue signs and continue cycling on forest paths and gravel roads past Krvavica and the old Ojstrica Castle ruins. We continue cycling through Loke and Tabor and return all the way back to our starting point.
