We start the over 90 km long tour with nearly 1400 meters of ascent at the Grof Hotel. We cycle along picturesque side roads, passing Žovnek Lake towards Braslovče. In Braslovče, we continue in the direction of Letuša, where we cross the Savinja River and proceed towards Nazarje through Mozirje. From Luče, we begin a gradual climb to the Volovljek Pass, where we take a break.
From there, we continue riding at an elevation of over 900 meters above sea level until we reach the Črnivec Pass, after which the descent begins towards Gornji Grad and Šmartno ob Dreti. Finally, we tackle the last, smaller ascent towards the Lipa Pass, ending the journey through Vransko at the Grof Hotel.
