The new cyclist track runs along the old abandoned railway track Huda Luknja. The original railway track between the Slovene cities of Velenje and Dravograd was once part of the Levantine railway opened in 1891 in Austro Hungarian empire and abandoned in 1968. The track is approximately 24 km long, following the configuration of the Mislinja valley carved by the Paka River using an old railway nivelette with historic tunnels. The design of new bridges follows the original idea of typical linear railway bridges. Steel beams are overcoming spans of over 31m, Providing exciting and dramatic views for the cyclist, reviling the history of the railway, once used for old mines of Saleška Valley.
