The ride starts in the village of Šterna, north-east of the historical Grožnjan, the international artist centre, at 5 p.m.

The trail passes through mostly forest paths and trails, by the villages of Čepić and Sv. Ivan, to return to Šterna in which a potable water source and an old church have been preserved to this day. The ride takes about 3 hours required to negotiate the 30 km of medium difficulty trails.

With the exception of the start and finish, the bicycle route mostly circumvents settlements, winding through luscious and shadowy forest landscapes, passing through the protected forest of Kornarija. The most popular natural beauty on the route is the waterfall of Butori and an abyss of the same name.
