Janče - Pance – Pugled, over Ravno Brdo and over Javor back, in between quite a few hills and valleys.
To Janče – officially the highest peak of the Ljubljana municipality, numerous roads and paths lead there, I prefer to visit it from the north, where the roads from Laz or Jevnice are still partly macadam and less trafficked, from there you have numerous continuation options again on all sides.
For this cycling continuation, I first choose Prežganje and descend from the hill into the Besnica valley (where everyone knows the road route Podgrad – Trebeljevo), from there to the turnoff for the village Ravno Brdo - and I'm quite surprised because they started to asphalt this once nice macadam and forest road. Too bad - for mountain bike lovers, probably fine for the locals, well, and road cyclists can now make a slightly longer detour over this hill.
The few km-long forest section to Pance is still super, a forest jewel, the highlight of this tour, substantially easier in the described direction from Ravno Brdo, because it mainly goes downhill, … where we then arrive in the nicely arranged village Pance. From there we continue to the next ridge hill, first to Mali, then Veliki Lipoglav - from the end of the village still a bit uphill, to a nice forest and marked footpath that leads to Pugled. The ascent to Magdalenska gora and Pugled is nice and not hard, from Vel. Lipoglav we climb about 100 meters of elevation gain, unfortunately possible further descents from Pugled (from the partisan monument) through the forest on paths towards Podlipoglav are probably too demanding for this frame of Sunday cycling. Therefore, I recommend returning via the circular (cycling) footpath back to Vel. Lipoglav and from there – from the village, descend into the valley on the nice macadam road (road route Sostro - Podlipoglav – Pance).
On the mentioned main road in the valley, after approx. 1 km of riding slightly downhill, then at the intersection turn right for the village Javor (straight to Podlipoglav and Sostro) and through the nice and quiet valley, as we moderately ascend on the asphalt road, we arrive in Javor and then through the village to the saddle, from where we descend again downhill into the Besnica valley. From here we again have more continuation options, flat or uphill - if we want to return to Janče, for example, we do the ascent to Vnajnarje on the only still unasphalted road from the southern side of the Janče highlands. This road is gorgeous, below shady, above panoramic, across Vnajnarje and Gabrje, … and it has only two turns: left and right, obviously.
