Description of MTB route:




 

The starting point of the mountain bike route is the square in Pakrac city. From the square proceed on the labeled road to Šeovica village. In the village, on the crossroad near the grave yard keep the south east course and proceed on the paved road to the saddle near area named Begovača. At the saddle there is A junction. Just proceed straight on unpaved road and on the next junction turn left following the unpaved section along Rogoljica stream. The next junction is situated in area named Petkovača. Proceed straight for Velika Poljana plateau. There are ruins of the hut on the plateau and meadows. From the ruins of  Velika Poljana Hut go back 1 km and there is the junction with the labeled hiking singletrack and carriageway across the forest for Petkovača. Just near the Petkovača pass the stream and proceed straight on the carriageway for Brezovo Polje. On the next crossroad turn right on unpaved road. After around 5km you will reach the spring of drinking water and the resting place named Široki Brijeg. Proceed straight. The unpaved road turns into carriageway and when you reach the mine field label turn sharp left and proceed on the carriageway along the stream. On some very short sections the stream ruins the carriageway. At the next crossroad turn right and proceed on the unpaved road along the Vodostaj stream. On all next junctions keep the ride on  unpaved road and follow the labels for Psunj or Brezovo Polje. At the junction before Brezovo Polje turn right and after about 3,5 km there is Brezovo Polje area and Psunj radio relay station too. From the peak ride back on the same trail until you reach the junction on the saddle near Begovača. Turn right and proceed on the carriageway that leads to Omanovac Hut.
