Access to starting point:
From Škofja Loka we drive through Gorenja vas to Žiri. In Žiri a sign for village Goropeke points us left upwards (if we come from Logatec right). The road then runs past the birth house of Leopold Suhadolčan and soon after that, it goes into the forest. When it comes out of the forest, it brings us to the village Goropeke, where we continue right past the church. The road has a little further another crossroad, where we continue on the left upper road which quickly brings us to the parking lot in front of the hut on Goropeke.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the forest road on the left side of the mountain hut. The road after few ten strides it brings us to the spot, where the marked path branches off to the left towards the mountain hut on Vrh Svetih Treh Kraljev. At first, a nice cart track soon brings us into a quite overgrown part of the path (in the summer). Marked but in some parts poorly visible path then brings us on an asphalt road, where we continue left. The road then through a smaller hamlet brings us to a crossroad, where we continue left on a marked path. The macadam road brings us to the next hamlet, where we continue among houses. Beware of the dogs! The path ahead ascends through a meadow and then goes again in the forest. The path ahead soon brings us on a macadam road, where we continue left. This road then past the hayrack brings us on an asphalt road, where we continue left upwards. The road then past the chapel brings us to the next crossroad, where we continue right. Only a short ascent follows past the fire station to the hut on Vrh Svetih Treh Kraljev.
PP: The entire path runs upwards and again downwards, only the last part of the path is mostly an ascent.
