Path description:
From the starting point, we continue right on a side road that is closed to public traffic. Soon we arrive at a smaller crossroads, where we continue straight (the left road ends on the slopes of Tomanova planina mountain pasture), then the path takes us along the upper edge of the nearby pasture, from where a beautiful view opens towards the hills above the Tuhinjska dolina valley. Behind the pasture we continue on the left upper road, then at the smaller crossroads straight ahead. A little further the forest ends and we arrive at the upper edge of a larger panoramic hay meadow, where a wider cart track branches off to the left, by which we can reach the saddle between Podbevška peč and the summit Seduc (in descriptions path past the summit Seduc), we however continue on the road that offers nice views. In the continuation the path returns to the forest and continues gently to occasionally moderately ascending, but when it begins to descend more noticeably, we quickly arrive at the marked junction at Ovčje jame, where we join the marked path.
We follow the marked path left towards Prevala, where we walk along a cart track that soon splits. We continue on the left cart track, along which a little higher we notice the blazes, and higher from it a view opens towards Podbevška peč, a little further also to Ojstri vrh. On this panoramic section the path levels out temporarily, then returns to the forest, where we follow the blazes. The initially poorly visible path soon widens, then ascends transversely to the left, where higher it leads across a steeper slope. When after a few minutes the path levels out, we already see the pasture fence in front of us, which we cross, then we are already at Prevala, where on the left, by the cross, we notice the logbook box.
From Prevala we continue northwards and begin descending across the panoramic slopes of the upper part of planina Ravni. After a short descent we step onto a wider cart track, follow it to the right, and after several tens of steps of further walking we arrive at the shepherd's hut on the mentioned planina.
From planina Ravni we continue towards Dom na Menini planini and planina Travnik. The path ahead rises slightly and soon enters the forest, through which it then continues for some time. A little further we join a wide cart track, along which we soon exit the forest. When we exit the forest, we step onto the western part of planina Travnik, across which we then walk to the shepherd's hut on the other side of the planina. A poorly visible path leads us there, crossing the planina.
From the hut we continue past the nearby cross and bell, behind which the marked path turns right. There follows a pleasant walk along the path, which first ascends gently, then moderately across expansive pastures. Higher the path enters the forest, where it gradually begins to descend. The path soon begins to ascend again and brings us to a macadam road, which we follow to the right. We walk for a few minutes along the mentioned road, then the blazes direct us right onto a footpath that ascends moderately through dense forest. Higher we cross the road once more and the path gradually brings us to the pastures of Menina planina. With a few shorter ascents and descents we continue along the pleasant path, to which after a somewhat longer descent also joins the path from Gornji Grad (path past Jespe).
We continue right towards Dom na Menini planini, along the path that crosses a belt of forest, then brings us to the parking lot near the already mentioned mountain hut. From the parking lot we continue across the meadow and the path, from which a beautiful view opens onto the chain of Kamniško Savinjske Alpe, quickly brings us to Dom na Menini planini.
