Due to Korona lockdown between Croatia and Slovenia, I accumulated many plans for our MTB trips in Slovenia, so when borders opened we chose to ride on Dovška Rožca mountain and saddle Mlinca. It is very nice and short tour which starts in the exactly the same place as tour that Gojsi and I rode last year Golica. I alredy knew that we should expect wonderful trails and views because trails engraved on this part of Slovenian mountains cannot be disappointing.

2016. for the first time I rode exactly the same route. I had a bike less suitable for this kind of trip, and I wasn’t in good shape as nowadays but I still managed to finish the ride. This is circular route that starts in Knin near fishpond, and there we parked our car. Gojsi and I met with a friends from Pelješac peninsula (Dalibor and Marko). Dalibor is admin of Pelješac Mtb Vibes page and we also rode together on st. Ilija few years before. Our route starts in Knin near fishpond on crossroads of Knin – Bosansko Grahovo road and the road coming from Krčić canyon. We parked on the side of the road, on the gps track you can se our starting point. from there we turned right to Bosansko Grahovo. After 2 km is another right turn, and from there you can see unpaved road in the direction to the Kninska Dinara – Brezovac Hut. The road proceeds to the Suvo Polje plateau where is the crossroad and the resting place named Markov Grob. Paved road is very wide and not so steep, great for introduction for later. Downside is that there is no shades, so it is very hot on the road during sunny days.
