Starting from the centre of Fužine, the trail stretches along the main road toward Lič, passing under the railway bridge and the Drvenjača production plant on the way. A few hundred meters beyond the centre of Lič, the trail turns left onto a gravel path through the Ličko Polje field, all the way to the Shrine of Our Lady of the Snows. Further along, the gravel path leads back to the Ličko Polje field, then turns right for an ascent toward Bitoraj. At the 12-kilometre mark, the trail connects to an asphalt forest path and turns left for descent toward the village of Vrata (please proceed with caution due to heavy forestry machinery!). Once in Vrata, keep following the gravel path across the highway and toward the Roswell cowboy village, but turn left and take the road descending toward the village of Vrelo at the 17-kilometre mark. Follow the trail along the Lepenica and Bajer lakes back to the centre of Fužine.

The trail is moderately demanding and dynamic, with technically challenging and steep sections toward Bitoraj and Roswell.
