Path description:
From the starting point, we head onto the road with signs for Kopitnik, which continues along a smaller stream. The road quickly brings us to the near residential houses, behind which it changes into a moderately steep mountain path. We short time still continue along the small stream and then blazes point us to the right on a slope, on which we start ascending steeper. A little higher, the path brings us out of the forest and then past a cross and next residential house brings us to an asphalt road. We follow the road uphill, then turn right at the next crossroad in the direction of Kopitnik. We continue on the road for a few minutes, then arrive at a marked crossing, from which we proceed straight on the road toward Stražnik and the peak of Kopitnik (right cottage Koča na Kopitniku and the peak of Kopitnik). After the nearby house, the asphalt ends, and we turn left in the direction of Kopitnik. Beyond the meadow, another path from Rimske Toplice joins from the left, and we follow the signs for Aškerčevo and Kopitnik, passing an older house to return into the forest. Through the forest, we follow the blazes, mostly ascending diagonally to the left. Higher, the path branches off to the left towards Aškerčevo, and to saddle Lukovški preval we follow the signs for Stražnik and Kopitnik. From the saddle, where the path through Senožete also joins, we go left in the direction of Stražnik (right Kopitnik).
We continue past a holiday cottage, and we ascend along a cart track. Higher, the signs for the peak direct us left from the cart track, and then we steeply ascend to the nearby peak, which is situated on the left side.
From the inscription box, we return a few steps and ascend to the "right" peak, then descend from there to the cart track, and in a few dozen strides we also reach the cross on Kopitnik.
