About This Route

[eng] Rugged route through the picturesque sunken valley with the Big and Small Natural Bridges.

 It is only 5 km long if you start in the valley (parking lot by the Small natural bridge or by the Hotel), but you can prolong the trip by starting by Dolenje Jezero - in that case it's 19 km altogether.

If you start off in Dolenje Jezero (19 km trail), head towards Dolenja vas and keep left to the lookout over Lake Cerknica. There, turn right towards the Rakov Škocjan valley. On the circular road through the valley, you can stop by Veliki and Mali naravni most (Big and Small Natural Bridge) and at the ruins of the church of St. Cantianus. The starting point can be reached via the villages of Zelše, Podskrajnik and Dolenja vas.

You can also start from Podskrajnik, Zelše or even the parking lot at the hotel in Rakov Škocjan. The trail is much shorter (through Rakov Škocjan only 5 km), but it gives more time to observe all the beauty of the valley.

 

[slo] Razgibana pot po slikoviti pogreznjeni dolini z Velikim in Malim naravnim mostom.

Kolesarjenje po Rakovem Škocjanu še posebej prija v vročem poletnem času, saj gozdnata udornica s potokom Rak ponuja prijetno hladno okolje. Če si za izhodišče izberete parkirišče pri Malem naravnem mostu ali pri Hotelu Rakov Škocjan, je krožna razgibana makadamska pot po dolini dolga le 5 km, naravne znamenitosti pa vas vabijo, da stopite s kolesa, si spočijete in jih podrobneje spoznate.

Seveda pa si izhodišče lahko izberete tudi kje drugje. Če pot začnemo v Dolenjem Jezeru, bo skupna dolžina poti dolga 19 km. Odpravimo se proti Dolenji vasi, tam na levo do razgledne točke na Cerkniško jezero in desno proti Rakovem Škocjanu. Na krožni poti skozi dolino se lahko ustavimo pri Malem in Velikem naravnem mostu ter cerkvici svetega Kancijana. Na izhodišče v Dolenje Jezero se vrnemo skozi Zelše, Podskrajnik in Dolenjo vas. Seveda pa si lahko za izhodišče izberete tudi Podskrajnik, Zelše ali pa kar sam Rakov Škocjan. Tako boste pot precej skrajšali, hkrati pa boste imeli več časa, da si ogledate vse lepote, ki jih dolina ponuja.
