Mirna Gora Cycling Route
The route to Mirna Gora takes you from Črnomelj past little villages and a beech forest, to the highest peak of Bela Krajina (1047 m). The route takes you past typical vineyard houses back to the starting point. It requires adequate physical fitness since a good half of the 37-kilometer route is a demanding ascent.
