Description of the route: Moderately demanding all-day trip with comparatively great altitude difference between the starting and finishing points. The prevailing part of it runs in forest - beware of unexpected encounters with wild animals (including bears). This greatest European predator lives practically in the whole area of the Poľana massif. 
The final ascent is the most demanding part of the trip.
