Preska - Rog (via Jeterbenk)

Access to starting point:
A) First, we drive to Ljubljana, and then we continue driving along Celovška cesta towards Medvode. When we get to Medvode, at the first traffic light we turn left across the railway track in the direction of Golego Brda, Žleb and Preska. Behind the railway track we continue right on the main road towards Preska; we drive along the main road to the first road junction on the left. Further, we drive through the settlement; after that, when on the right side we notice the sports field of the nearby primary school, we turn left onto Cesta v Žlebeh. When the residential houses on the right side of the road end, we arrive at the well-maintained parking lot, where we park.
B) From Škofja Loka, Kranj or Vodice we drive to Medvode, from there we continue driving towards Ljubljana. At the last traffic light in Medvode, which is located about 100 m ahead of the Hofer store, we turn right across the railway track in the direction of Golego Brda, Žleb and Preska. Behind the railway track we continue right on the main road towards Preska; we drive along the main road to the first road junction on the left. Further, we drive through the settlement; after that, when on the right side we notice the sports field of the nearby primary school, we turn left onto Cesta v Žlebeh. When the residential houses on the right side of the road end, we arrive at the well-maintained parking lot, where we park.

Path description:
At the end of the parking lot there is a marked junction, where we continue right in the direction of Jeterbenk and Katarina (left Slavkov dom on Golem Brdu). The path first leads along a macadam road, which after a smaller house changes into a cart track, from which we continue left into the forest, where we first cross a stream. Further on, we gently ascend along an occasionally overgrown path, which leads us past several smaller junctions, where we follow the blazes. After a few minutes of gentle ascent, the path turns slightly to the left and gradually descends to the forest road, which we only cross. There follows some minor descent, then we reach an asphalt road and follow it to the right, but we walk on it only a short time, as the red mountain signposts direct us left to the nearby fruit press.
We bypass the fruit press pr Andrej on the left side, then behind it we continue over a small bridge into the forest. In the forest we first continue right and ascend in a few minutes to a cart track, on which we step out of the forest. The path ahead leads along the mentioned cart track, which first passes a house, then with nice views on Polhograjsko hribovje. After a short descent we reach an asphalt road, which we only cross, as the path continues along a macadam road. The road soon splits into two parts, and we continue along the lower left one, along which we quickly arrive at a left bend, by which there is the marked parking lot Žlebe.
From the parking lot we continue along a cart track in the direction of Katarina, Jeterbenk and sv. Marjeta (left Petelinc), which continues on the left side of the stream. After some ten steps we leave the mentioned cart track and continue right into the forest, where we first descend to the stream and also cross it. On the other side we still gently ascend for a short time, then the path turns right and ascends more steeply. Somewhat higher we arrive at a marked junction, where we continue left (right church sv. Marjete 3 minutes) and at the nearby next one again left. A little further ahead the path splits into two parts, and we continue along the lower left one (right Jeterbenk čez Turnice), which further on is unmarked for some time, but is marked at most junctions.
From the unmarked junction we first gently descend to a smaller gully, then gently ascend to a cart track, which we follow to the left; we walk along it to the place where the "Petelinc" signs direct us right onto a steeper path, along which in a few minutes we arrive at a hay meadow (by the edge of the hay meadow there is a bench), over which we steeply ascend. The path ahead returns into the forest and takes us past ruins to a marked junction, where we join the marked path from Slavkov dom on Golem Brdu.
Here we continue right and begin to ascend along the ridge of Jeterbenk, from which we occasionally get a bit of a view towards the south. Higher we reach a kind of forepeak, from which we descend to a smaller saddle, where we join the path from Katarina. Here we continue straight and in a few steps reach the summit, in the middle of which stands a large cross.
From the junction a few steps below the summit we continue in the direction of Katarina and first steeply descend through the forest, then arrive at a weekend house, where the path levels out and takes us to the road. We continue along the road, which quickly brings us to a junction by the chapel.
From the mentioned junction, which is located at the edge of the forest, we continue straight (sharply left Jeterbenk, left Slavkov dom na Golem Brdu) along a scenic road, along which we quickly arrive at the next junction, from which we continue straight onto a footpath that continues between two roads (left road leads towards Katarina, right towards the Kozomer farm). The path ahead quickly ascends to a bench and table, then continues for a short time along the edge of the forest, where a nice view opens up. Higher the path enters the forest and takes us to a forepeak, from which it descends past a hut to a cart track. Along the cart track we ascend only a short time, then at the place where the cart track turns slightly to the right, we continue straight uphill on a well-trodden trail, which begins to steeply ascend over the hay meadow. Higher the path enters the forest, where it ascends even more steeply. When somewhat higher we step out of the forest, we are already on the summit of Rog by the large wooden cross.
