Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Lipce, where we drive right towards Jesenice. In the settlement Slovenski Javornik, at the crossroad with traffic lights we turn left towards the center of the town. In the second traffic light crossroad (at secondary school) we go right, back on the road Tomšičeva cesta, past the primary school on the left. We drive for additional 2.5 km to the end of street Tomšičeva ulica, or to the spot, where by the railway tracks there is the last bus stop below the hill. Here is a large parking lot, or our starting point.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we go on the asphalt road uphill, where below the top on the left we notice a footpath, on which we go, and there we turn to the left past the gardens on our left. We immediately come near the residential buildings on the left, where we cross a short cart track (it leads to the nearby water reservoir on the right). The footpath now ascends a little towards power line which we quickly reach. Here we turn right uphill towards the east on a gravel path. We soon reach the other power line, where the path turns left into a smaller forest (in the summer time we run into wire fence), after which we step on (hunting) footpath east-west. We turn left (west) through the pasture, towards the end of which, on the left we notice a small bench, and here at the crossing we continue right, steeper uphill. Soon steepness decreases and the path turns left towards exposed rocky "baba", where we can enjoy the view.
We continue in deciduous forest (direction west), where the path which crosses the south slope of Kozjek, at first descends a little, and after this it brings us on a forested plain. Here we turn sharply right, on a ridge, where we quite quickly also run into a footpath. There in the direction of east, in few minutes we ascend also to the upper point of vegetated ridge, where a view opens up on the Slovenian Javornik, Lipce, Blejska Dobrava, Mežakla, Jelovica with Ratitovec and Ljubljana Basin.
