This is perfect day ride from Pirot. All paved roads, except once you get to the lake, where you can explore many gravel and off road options. Make short but steep trip to the St. Ilia's Cross site, 1812, where you can refill your water on cold stream. If you are visiting off season bring food as the amenities are closed.
Enjoy and respect. Happy Tails
