Access to starting point:
A) From the road Ljubljana - Kočevje at settlement Žlebič we go on the road in the direction of Sodražica. In Sodražica we leave the main road and we continue driving in the direction of the settlement Hrib - Loški potok. Further, we drive on at first an ascending and quite winding road which we follow to the earlier mentioned settlement. When from the right side the road from Nova vas na Blokah joins, we continue straight, and then at the next crossroad right in the direction of Srednja vas. Here the road starts descending steeper, and a little lower at the next crossroad, we continue straight in the direction of Šegova vas. In Šegova vas we choose the left road, and then past few houses we ascend on extensive meadows, through which we get to a hamlet Matevljek. Above the hamlet, the road loses an asphalt covering and gradually passes into the forest. When we get to a crossroad of multiple roads, we park on an appropriate place by the crossroad. We park the way we don't hinder possible forestry work.
B) From highway Ljubljana - Koper we go to the exit Unec, and then we continue driving towards Cerknica and further to Nova vas. In Nova vas, on an indistinct, but still well-marked crossroad, we continue straight on the road in the direction of Sodražica, and after approximately 1 km of additional driving right in the direction of Studenec na Blokah. At the next crossroads, we follow the road in the direction of the settlement Hrib - Loški Potok. When we join the road from Sodražica, we continue straight, and then at the next crossroad right in the direction of Srednja vas. Here the road starts descending steeper, and a little lower at the next crossroad, we continue straight in the direction of Šegova vas. In Šegova vas we choose the left road, and then past few houses we ascend on extensive meadows, through which we get to a hamlet Matevljek. Above the hamlet, the road loses an asphalt covering and gradually passes into the forest. When we get to a crossroad of multiple roads, we park on an appropriate place by the crossroad. We park the way we don't hinder possible forestry work.
Path description:
From the crossroad, by which we parked, we continue on the upper right road (looking in the direction of access to the starting point), which starts moderately ascending through the forest. The road, by which we can notice also few old blazes, we follow to the spot, where the forest for some time ends. Here we continue right on a cart track, and it returns into the forest. We continue through a quite thin forest, and the cart track quickly brings us to the next crossing, where we continue on the most left cart track. The cart track which is then moderately ascending, only few minutes higher brings us to a less noticeable crossing, where a little better marked path branches off to the right towards Votla stena and Velika Jazbina, and we continue straight and a quite poorly marked path, at the next crossings we follow slightly left. The path ahead leads us past a frost hollow, and on the other side, it slowly starts vanishing. We continue the ascent on a barely visible footpath which starts ascending steeper on a smaller and relatively steep valley. Here as well, we can during the ascent notice some old blazes, and the path after few minutes comes out of the forest, where we step on a macadam road.
The mentioned road, we only cross and we walk to the nearby meadow. Here the blazes finally end, and we can continue on the left less steep or right a little steeper cart track. If we continue on the left cart track, we walk there until it entirely flattens. At this spot, we leave it and we go right on easier pathless terrain. From the spot, when we leave the cart track, to the top of Petelinjek we have approximately 5 minutes of ascent through the forest.
If we continue on the right cart track, we ascend there to a smaller saddle between Velika Jazbina on the right and Petelinjek on the left. On the saddle, we leave the cart track and we continue left in the forest, through which in good 5 minutes of additional walking, we ascend on a forested peak.
