Druga po redu \u0106irina biciklijada vodi nas od Zavale do Trebinja, stazom u du\u017eini od 45km u jednom pravcu. U oba pravca nakupiti \u0107emo nekih 90km, no nemojte da vas kilometra\u017ea prepadne, jer staza je potpuno ravna i \u017eivotopisna sa prelijepim krajolicima. Kao \u0161to smo kazali ovo jedna jako lijepa dionica, gdje sre\u0107emo velik broj \u0106irinih stanica, kao i onu najljep\u0161u i najve\u0107u \u201cHUM\u201d, gdje \u0107emo svakako napraviti pauzu za okrijepu i obilazak. Ponavljamo, dionica je potpuno ravna (mo\u017eete zaboraviti na fizi\u010dki umor), a kolege iz Trebinja su se ve\u0107 par puta pokazali kao izvrsni doma\u0107ini, tako da nas svakako o\u010dekuje zabava, dru\u017eenje i bogat sadr\u017eaj. Biciklijadu zavr\u0161avamo u starom gradu Trebinju, sa obilaskom grada uz turisti\u010dkog vodi\u010da, a prije toga svakako nezaobilazn je posjet \u0106iri \u2013 vlaku koji jo\u0161 stoji i prkosi vremenu, gdje \u0107emo napraviti zajedni\u010dku fotografiju. Na ovoj biciklijadi ugostiti \u0107e nas Grad Trebinje, Turisticka Organizacija Grada Trebinja i Biciklisti\u010dki klub Vu\u010dji zub.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HISTORY\/HISTORY OF CIRE:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the past, a narrow-gauge railway with a steam locomotive ran from Mostar along the Neretva river, through \u010capljina, Popovo polje, Ravno, and in the town of Hum (the main railway junction) it split into two tracks, where one leads to Trebinje and on to Bile\u0107a and Nik\u0161i\u0107 , and the other branch to Uskoplje (that is, Zelenica and Dubrovnik). It is important to emphasize that in the town of Uskoplje (2km before Ivanica) we had another junction, where one branch goes to Zelenica (Montenegro), and the other to Dubrovnik (Croatia).
Construction of the railway began in 1898 and ended in 1901. During its existence, \u0106iro connected places in Herzegovina and brought them life, and today the railway has been reconstructed into a bicycle path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
