Itinerary description

Very nice tour from this page. I only did first part. http://www.takeadventure.com/brest-orljak-zbevnica/
You start in village Brest in Croatia. If you are coming from Slovenia use Podgorje/Jelovica border crossing.. The tour is very well planned, but expect hike a bike toward the Orljak summit. It's steep. Just from the top a little bit technical descent but very short. At the end of tour there is a place where you have to cross frontyard of the house with two verry agressive dogs and the owner who is weird as well. It is about kilometer from village Krkuz, first you go pass some very nice villas and after few hundred meters you come to the house. So be prepared. Waypoint is in original gpx track. I really recommend using track all the time (on your phone or other tracking device, since there are quite a lot trails and you can get from track very fast as I did when wasn't paying attention.
