Your First Hiking Experience on Mysticaly Bilogora hill

What to Expect

Our gathering is at mountain lodge “Kamenitovac“ in Maglenča village located on 242 meters ASL. Along with a light morning meal, we are enjoying on a terrace with a beautiful view of the city of Bjelovar, Veliko Trojstvo, its fields, forests, and other villages.
Before hiking, we are going to go for a short walk on a newly built educational path “Bilogora“ where you will meet the diversity of Bilogora flora and fauna. After that, you will receive a hiking beginner diary which you will mark with a hiking checkpoint stamps during your Bilogora adventure. Later, when we return to “Kamenitovac“ lodge, you will receive a badge of “Bilogora Hiking Association“ as recognition for successful hiking along “Bilogora trails“, one of the numerous official Croatian Mountain Association trails.
With the guidance from a licensed hike guide and adventure tourism organizer, we are going for an 11,5 kilometers long walk through Bilogora landscapes.
You are going to see hidden viewpoints of picturesque villages and meadows along with relaxing sounds of leaves falling from trees in the rhythm od light breeze. While chillaxing in nature, we will tell stories about Bilogora mythological beings and their co-living with local people. You will also see other tourist attractions such as “Bilogora magic“, a family estate that offers organic products such as mare’s milk, and where you can also meet domestic animals such as horses, ducks, etc.
Our rural and hiking fairy-tale experience will end at the “Kamenitovac“ lodge with a nice lunch and “rakijica“ (domestic plumb shooter). During your way back home, we recommend you to visit Bjelovar, the city of Empress Maria Theresa, or maybe to go for a ride through the open road sculpture gallery called “Svijetle pruge“.
