The cross-country skiing trail across Dobrava is considered by many cross-country skiers to be one of the most beautiful in this part of Europe. The rugged terrain and the magnificent views of the surrounding mountain ridges will delight everyone.
Dobrava is a low and mountainous plateau that stretches across the Lower Bohinj Valley from Bohinjska Bistrica to the village of Polje. It rises south above the Sava Bohinjka, as a kind of foot of the Bohinj-Tolmin ridge. The track is prepared for both classic and skating techniques.

Start
Destination
Turn-by-turn directions
The initial part of the slope in Bohinjska Bistrica, below the Telečnica hill, a popular sledding area, has been laid, but soon begins the steep climb towards Dobrava. The slope is interrupted several times by flatter parts. Once you reach the plateau of Dobrava, the steep sections are fewer, and after a few kilometres of running along Dobrava, the track heads back towards Bohinjska Bistrica. The descent back to Bohinjska Bistrica is also steep and requires some caution.
