Access to starting point:
A) First, we drive to Kamnik, and then we continue driving on a regional road through the valley Tuhinjska dolina. Only a little after the village Laze v Tuhinju, we will get to the gas station, by which road branches off to the left towards villages Golice, Češnjice v Tuhinju and Okrog pri Motniku. Here we turn left and on a little narrower road we quickly reach the settlement Češnjice v Tuhinju, where there is a sports field. We park on an appropriate place by the road before or after the village.
B) From highway Maribor - Ljubljana, we go to the exit Vransko, and then we continue driving in the direction of Kamnik. Only a little after mountain pass Kozjak (mountain pass between Gorenjska and Štajerska), we will get to the gas station, by which road branches off to the right towards villages Golice, Češnjice v Tuhinju and Okrog pri Motniku. Here we turn right and on a little narrower road we quickly reach the settlement Češnjice v Tuhinju, where there is a sports field. We park on an appropriate place by the road before or after the village.
Path description:
Opposite of sports field we go on the road which ascends through the village, by its beginning on one of houses we notice signs for ŠDT (wooden sign is damaged, so that entire caption is not visible). After a short ascent through the village we get to a smaller memory park NOB, where we continue right (path ŠDT continues left) on a cart track which is diagonally ascending towards the right. After few minutes, the cart track brings us into a smaller valley, where there is usually situated woodpile, and on this part, we continue right on an ascending cart track. Further, we are ascending on a cart track, from which at first a view opens up a little on surrounding hills, and then it passes into a dense forest, where leads us past interesting watering place for wild animals. Higher, we cross a macadam road (left Zgornji Tuhinj and Golice, right Okrog pri Motniku) and we continue the ascent on a cart track, on which we quickly get to the cottage Kovran, where the cart track turns a little to the left. Next follows a diagonal ascent towards the left, whereupon we get to a crossing, where in the direction of straight continues short path towards the nearby cottage, which is situated by the edge of larger mountain pasture, and we continue right and further we are ascending by the grazing fence. Higher, at the hayrack we continue second turn-off right and we are still ascending by the grazing fence, and from the path a nice view opens up towards Kum. After few minutes of a steep ascent we cross a grazing fence, cart track which widens also flattens. We continue on a wider cart track which continues among pastures, and in doing so it crosses more fences, which are situated on a cart track. A little further, by the path, we notice even some old blazes, and after them we join worse road which we follow upwards. After about a minute of additional walking, we reach a wider road, and we follow it left in the direction of Tuhinj (right Biba planina). On wider road we walk few minutes, and then at the beginning of the left turn we continue slightly right on the forest road, on which we are moderately ascending through the forest. When the road brings us out of the forest we get to Česenska poljana, where the road changes into a cart track, and in a gentle descent it brings us to a crossing, where we join the marked path Golice - Dom na Menini planini.
We follow the mentioned path to the right, and further at some crossings we follow the blazes. When higher forest again gets thinner we get to a marked crossing, where the path splits into two parts. The right path leads on Vivodnik, and left mentioned peak bypasses and leads directly to the mountain hut Dom na Menini planini. We continue on the right path, on which with occasional views we quickly get to the highest peak of Menina planina, where there stands a smaller wooden lookout tower.
On the other side of the peak as is a lookout tower, more precisely near the inscription box, we will notice the beginning of the marked path which starts descending towards the northeast. The path then turns a little towards the left, where it crosses a lane of a forest and then it flattens and in a gentle ascent brings us to a marked crossing, where from the left joins the path which bypasses the peak Vivodnik. We continue straight into a lane of a forest and then the path starts considerably descending towards the mountain hut Dom na Menini planini, which we already see in front of us, and we reach it after few minutes of additional walking.
