Access to starting point:
a) From the Ljubljana–Koper motorway, take the Dragomer exit, then continue driving on the parallel old road towards Vrhnika. Soon at the traffic-light-controlled intersection, turn right towards the centre of Dragomer. When the centre lines end, turn slightly right and immediately straight up the slope. Drive along it to the intersection, continue right (marked) and arrive at the parking lot in front of the Church of St. Lovrenc along a fairly steep road.
b) From the Koper–Ljubljana motorway, take the Vrhnika exit, then continue driving on the parallel old road towards Ljubljana. After 8.5 km of driving from the point where you joined the old road, turn left onto the local road that continues between meadows and fields. After a few hundred metres, reach a hamlet of a few houses, where at the intersection turn left; the road turns right just a few metres further. Continue mostly straight ahead, then at the intersection next to which there are waste containers, turn right. A steep ascent and bend follow to the intersection, where continue left and arrive at the parking lot in front of the Church of St. Lovrenc along a fairly steep road.
Route description:
From the parking lot, follow the path to the water intake, bypass it on the left; as soon as you reach the forest, continue right on the path. After a short ascent, reach the logging trail again, cross it and continue on the wide path that leads to an indistinct ridge. Continue on the most trodden path, which mostly sticks to the ridge. With a few short ascents and descents over two small hills, the path finally leads to the logging trail. Continue along it to the main ridge of Debelega hriba, where there is a junction. Continue left towards Ferjanke, right Vrh. The gentle path takes you in 3 minutes to the foot of Vrhovčev grič, where turn right onto a rougher path and in 2 minutes you are at Vrhovčev grič. You can also ascend from the western side along the logging trail.
