Križna Gora - Sveti Križ (Križna Gora)

Access to starting point:
A) From Gorenje vasi, Medvode or Kranj we drive to Škofja Loka and continue driving towards Železniki. When we are still in Škofja Loka we arrive at a traffic-light intersection, where we turn right in the direction of Križna Gora, Virlog and Moškrin. Immediately when we drive off the main road we arrive in the settlement Binkelj, and we follow the signs for Križna Gora at the next intersections. After the settlement Moškrin the road starts to ascend more steeply, then somewhere in the middle of the ascent it brings us to a smaller intersection, where we continue right (left Cavrn). Higher, when we have already arrived in the settlement Križna Gora, at the intersection we continue right (left hunting cottage and church of the Holy Cross). A shorter ascent follows, then we arrive at a well-maintained parking lot, where we park.

Path description:
From the starting point, we return on the road by which we arrived at the starting point, along which we walk past the turn-off of the path to Praprotno, to the intersection in the middle of the village, from where we continue right in the direction of the church and hunting cottage. We continue on a fairly panoramic and initially still asphalt road, which gently ascends towards the high-voltage power line. After the power line, the road flattens or even slightly descends, then a footpath branches off to the left from it, which leads directly towards the church of the Holy Cross.
We continue on the mentioned footpath, which runs parallel to the road and on which we arrive at the already mentioned little church in a few minutes.
From the little church, from where a nice view opens up, we continue on a well-trodden path, which continues somewhat to the right and returns to the road that we left shortly before. When we step onto the road we continue slightly left and in one minute of further walking we arrive at the hunting cottage, which is located at the edge of the forest.
Description and pictures refer to the condition in 2015 (March).
