Path description:
From the church, markings lead right, but you can also continue straight on the road, which is also described and marked on OSM. The road leads between houses, soon a gravel road branches left. Continue on this road, which passes the last houses and enters the forest. A nice gravel road without major ascents crosses the slope. After about 15 minutes, the road crosses a small valley and reaches an intersection. Markings direct left onto a somewhat steeper road. The road passes a few more intersections, which after about 100 meters merge together. An old poor road merges with a much better new road. After the intersections, the road ascends evenly and soon the dense forest ends. Reach a new intersection, where markings direct straight ahead; left goes the road to Debelo Brdo. Continue past the alpine pasture, then the road zigzags steeply up past meadows and forest strips into dense forest. Just before the dense forest, a marked path branches right, which is not worn, so I recommend sticking to the road. Soon reach a junction, continue left. Here the good road ends. The road crosses the slope again and descends slightly to the junction for Velika Golija. Straight on the road leads to the village Čelebić. Turn right onto a poorer cart track, which in two zigzags leads out of the forest onto grassy plateaus. The cart track leads through strips of brush and winds nicely between rocks. After about 1 hour of ascent from the road, reach the foot of Velika Golija. With each step, better views open towards Dinara and Kamešnica. The cart track worsens and leads through a valley to the saddle between Velika Golija and Velika Privija. Here the cart track ends and markings direct left towards the summit. A few more meters of cart track, then the path almost disappears. Here carefully follow markings and stakes due to the minefield area. The trail is very poorly trodden here. In 20 minutes of ascent from the end of the cart track, reach Velika Golija, where a larger cairn and logbook stand. From the summit, nice views in all directions.
