Primož Roglič Birthplace

We embark on a picturesque route through the birthplace of our top cyclist, Primož Roglič. We start at the Hotel Grof and turn towards Vransko, from where we slowly start to ascend towards Trojan. After a short break at the Trojane inn, where we recommend indulging in Trojane donuts, we turn onto a side road towards Izlake. We also pass through his birthplace, Kisovec, where we recommend visiting the brand-new cycling park named in his honor.

Next, we head towards Zagorje ob Savi and Trbovlje, where we gradually begin to ascend towards the Podmeja Pass. A short stop for the views is advised. We then descend towards Tabor and finish our tour along a quiet side road by the Bolska River back at the Grof Hotel.
