Path description:
From the starting point, we continue on street Novi trg, and we walk there in the direction towards the north. On the mentioned street in few minutes we get to Kamnik bypass road, where we short time walk by the edge of the road, and then we already notice the first signs for castle Stari grad, which point us on a wide and well-settled natural learning trail. The path quite quickly starts relatively steeply ascending and passes into the forest, through which it is then for quite some time ascending. During the ascent, we notice several benches and boards of the learning path, and only a little above the area, where there is a larger number of little mills and learning boards we get to a crossing, where we continue sharply left (straight continues natural learning trail, and hunting path on Visoka špica ). A short ascent through the forest follows, and then it gets thinner and the path quickly brings us to the ruins of the former castle, from where a beautiful view opens up.
From the top, we continue on the asphalt road which starts descending towards the saddle between Krniška gora and Visoka Špica. On the saddle joins also one of the two path, which bypass castle Stari grad, and we continue slightly left on a cart track which starts ascending through the forest. We continue on a cart track or slightly right on a parallel forest path. If we continue on a cart track we then stick to the right directions, and if we continue on a forest path, at the crossings we choose the path which is ascending. In both cases after good 10 minutes of additional walking, we get to the top of Visoka špica, the difference is only in that, that if we walk on a cart track we at first get to the inscription box, and if we walk on the footpath we at first get to a viewpoint with benches.
