    Roller Coaster

Nice trail born from an old Motorcycle line reshaped for bike use. The name comes from the fact that the start and the end of the trail are close to the railway and this is the trail that bring you to the far est trail area. First part alternate little steep part to flatter one with a good flow. A small rollercoaster bring you to a a fabulous pine forest and "black heart" zone. It's not the longest trail of the area but for sure one of the nicest one

Access Info Restricted Access

from Crni Kal follow the signs for the climbing cliff parking. From the parking take the fireroad also used by the climbers to reach the cliff. Ride it (first part up then down) and when the downhill get flatter at your right you have the trailhead (you will also see an old hunter house on a tree just next to it)
