It is hard to believe that a picturesque valley between Mojstrana and Gozd Martuljek so unknown is. As far as its beauty is concerned, it can be easily compared to any other valley. Throughout the years, mountain streams have reshaped the valley and gave it a wild and romantic appearance which reminds you of a fabulous landscape from the film The Lord of the Rings.
Starting off in Kranjska Gora, follow the above mentioned cycling track to Jesenice. At the village Podkuže turn left onto the main road and cycle several 10 meters on the left side of it. Take a nice forest road on the right, leading uphill, which brings you to the forest. After the tunnel the valley becomes narrower. You can admire a beautiful view over the village Belca, lying under the rocky slope, called Štenge (“Stairs”).
The forest road is pleasant to cycle on, but very steep in places. However, spectacular views over ravines, sharp and steep slopes, a steep pyramid of Kepa draw your attention away from the steep slope you are cycling on.
When arriving at the top of the Karavanke Mountain ridge (where the border runs) you can enjoy a splendid view over the northern side of the Karavanke Mountains.
