The Tršće–Crni Lug section is the highest one of the Cycling Trail of Gorski Kotar, taking you through the most forested areas of Gorski Kotar. Riding down this section, the only sounds to reach you – apart from wheels turning on gravel – will be birdsong and the sound of the wind. Immerse yourself in the rich scents of forest plants and visit a few unique viewpoints which can be reached on bicycle. A visit to the mountain lodges of the section will reward you with an authentic atmosphere of Gorski Kotar’s unparalleled forests. The end of the section takes you to the Risnjak massif with its rich flora and fauna. The main entrance to the Risnjak National Park is located in Crni Lug.

Explore stunning landscapes, breathe fresh air, visit castles, stay in charming cottages, and savor authentic, nature-inspired cuisine.
