The starting point of the mountain bike route is the crossroad of the roads Obrovac – Gračac and Obrovac – Maslenica. There is a parking place near the restaurant. From the parking place proceed on the highway to Gračac. Just few meters before the crossroad for Muškovci there is a house on the left side of the road. Leave the paved road just before the house and turn left on the carriageway to the north course. After around 2 km there is the crossroad again. Keep right and ride to the Prosenjak. This section of the trail is a very steep climb. Prosenjak at 600m over see level is a plateau with the meadows surrounded with rocky formations. The carriageway leads to the north west course. After around 2km there is the crossroad. The west course leads to the area Tulove Grede. This area is labeled as the mine field area. So, on the crossroad choose the carriageway on the right side and proceed to the north and north east course. The carriageway leads to the Male Jasle valley. There is the crossroad. The course to the west leads to the Serdaruše area and the trail ends with the labeled mine field area. Turn right to the east course. The carriageway reaches the junction with the unpaved road Prezid – Mali Halan. Turn left to the west course. From this point there is no way to miss the right way.
