Route description:
North of the castle, at one of the parking lots, we notice signs for the Path of Sovereignty and an older board of the forest educational trail. The signs direct us onto a path that immediately turns into the forest and continues along a rough cart track. This initially ascends, then levels out and traverses the slopes to the right for some time. In the last part of the traverse, the path gently descends; when we reach the nearby stream, we join a cart track that comes from the direction of Ribnik or the starting point Marof pri Pišecah.
We continue left towards the north along the cart track, which gradually turns into a footpath. This levels out briefly, then ascends somewhat more steeply. After the ramsons patch, it turns right, moves away from the valley floor and leads us along its headwall. The path then quickly turns back to the left and climbs to the forest road, which we reach near the bivouac of the Pišece Hunting Association.
Before the bivouac, go left, then red alpine directional signs for Kerinov monument and Pečice direct us right onto the alpine path (straight ahead Path of Sovereignty), which begins to ascend through the forest. After 15 minutes of ascent, we arrive near the summit of Intermedija, where we go right and in a few steps reach the highest point of the summit, from which some views open up through the treetops.
