Route description:
From the starting point at the inn Legastja we first carefully cross the road, then we head onto the footpath in the direction of St. Jakob. The path first ascends on a grassy cart track which leads us among hay meadows and pastures, then it flattens and brings us to a smaller hamlet, where we step onto an asphalt road. We continue the path among a few houses, behind which the asphalt road turns into a cart track, on which we ascend to the nearby hayracks. At the hayracks the blazes direct us slightly left onto the path, which then ascends across the meadow. Easy-to-follow but somewhat overgrown in high grass path brings us after a few minutes to another asphalt road, which we reach at a smaller crossroad by which there is a cross. We continue on the left side of the cross along the ascending road, on which we quickly arrive at a hamlet of a few houses and a marked junction there.
From the junction we continue straight and continue the path for a few more minutes along the road (left 10 minutes shorter path). When the road in the forest makes a right turn, we leave it and continue straight onto a somewhat steeper marked path that ascends through the forest and a bit higher leads past a water tank. From there follows a few more minutes of ascent through the forest, then we arrive at the edge of a meadow where the path turns right. We leave the cart track which we are following in a gentle left turn, as the blazes direct us right onto a trail that crosses the slopes to the right. After a short crossing we step onto a macadam road and follow it to the right. The mentioned macadam road quickly brings us to a junction from which we continue along the upper left road in the direction of St. Jakob and Brezovica. From the asphalt road a view soon opens towards St. Jakob, which we already see to the left behind us, and we walk along the road to the settlement Brezovica.
At the upper part of the settlement there is a marked junction where we continue right in the direction of Katarina (left St. Jakob) and continue along a narrower macadam road on which we walk only briefly, as we will soon reach an unmarked path branch-off that leads towards Rog. The footpath branches off the road slightly to the left and initially continues parallel to it, then ascends more steeply and brings us to an expansive panoramic hay meadow. Across the hay meadow we continue slightly left, then on the other side again slightly left (right church of St. Katarina). The path continues through a strip of forest and shrubbery, then brings us to the grassy ridge of Rog along which we quickly reach the summit, at the edge of which there is a large cross.
