Gradiško jezero - Gradiški grič (by road)

Access to starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Maribor highway, we take the Lukovica exit, then continue driving towards Moravče. After crossing Radomlje, we arrive at the beginning of the settlement Spodnje Prapreče, where at the crossroad we continue left in the direction of Gradiško Lake. After a short ascent, we arrive at a crossroad with the priority road, where we continue right towards Gradiško Lake (left Gradišče), then only a little further, from the priority road left towards Gradiško Lake (right Preserje pri Lukovici), before which we then park on a large parking lot.

Route description:
From the starting point, we continue to the left, initially on the still asphalted road, from which we soon turn sharply to the left, ascending above the nearby picnic area. We continue the ascent on a fairly steep macadam road, which past a small chapel and with views of the surrounding hills brings us to the village Gradišče pri Lukovici, where at the junction with the main road we reach the marked path that leads from the valley.
We follow the road to the right, along which we walk past several houses, a sports field, the log cabin TD Gradišče and the NOB monument. At the first crossroad after the monument we go right, then past a sign (cross) we ascend to the church of St. Marjeta.
From the small church we can also ascend to the peak a few minutes away, but taking care not to walk on fields; the most appropriate way to the top is along the edge of the forest so as not to damage the meadows.
Description and pictures refer to the condition in 2016 (October).

Along the route: Sveta Marjeta (Gradišče pri Lukovici) (466m)
