Mače - Cjanovca (Mačenska pot and via Dolga njiva)

Access to starting point:
A) From the highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Kranj - east, and then we continue driving in the direction of Jezersko. When we get to Preddvor we leave the main road and we continue driving left towards the center of the mentioned settlement, from there we follow the signs for Mače. When we get to Mače, at the marked intersection we continue right (left Bašelj, straight church of St. Miklavž (church isn't accessible with a car)) and on a narrow road we drive above the village, where there is a larger marked parking lot.
B) From the highway Jesenice - Ljubljana we go to the exit Kranj - west and at the first intersection we continue left. Further, we drive through the underpass under the highway, and then we get to a roundabout, from where we continue driving in the direction of Golnik. The path ahead leads us through the settlement Mlaka pri Kranju, and at the end of the settlement, we continue right in the direction of the settlement Srakovlje. Next follows driving through Srakovlje, Spodnja Bela, Srednja Bela to Zgornja Bela, where we continue right towards Preddvor. In Preddvor we notice signs for Mače, which point us to the left past the primary school on a road which ascends to Mače. When we get to Mače, at the marked intersection we continue right (left Bašelj, straight church of St. Miklavž (church isn't accessible with a car)) and on a narrow road we drive above the village, where there is a larger marked parking lot.

Path description:
At the end of the parking lot, we will notice blazes that direct us onto a wide cart track which initially ascends gently. The cart track has some smaller forks at the beginning, and we keep somewhat to the right and continue on the marked path. Higher up the cart track ascends steeply a few times for short periods, then brings us to signposts, where we continue left in the direction of Hudičev boršt.
At the signposts we leave the cart track and continue the ascent on a marked footpath which starts to ascend steeper through denser and denser forest. Higher up the forest thins, and the path brings us out of the forest onto increasingly panoramic grassy slopes of Zaplata, where ahead of us we already see Hudičev boršt. Here the path ascends steeply once more, then joins the path St. Jakob - Kališče. Here we continue left in the direction of Kališče and Srednji vrh (right shelter in Hudičev boršt 3 minutes) on the path which crosses the grassy slopes of Zaplata towards the west. After a few minutes of crossing the path enters the forest, where soon we reach the next marked junction.
This time we continue right in the direction of Cjanovca, Srednji vrh and Mali Grintovec on the path which starts ascending more steeply through the forest. A fairly steep path higher brings us into a smaller valley, where the forest thins and the path flattens. After a few minutes of walking in the mentioned valley the path turns right, ascends more steeply and after a short ascent brings us to the hut on Dolga njiva.
From the hut on Dolga njiva we continue straight in the direction of Cjanovca and Srednji vrh (left Mali Grintovec, right pathless route to Hudičev boršt) on the path which first ascends over a grassy slope then passes into a belt of dwarf pines, where it continues on a wide clearing. The path, which ascends transversely towards the east, then brings us higher to a less noticeable junction, where we continue right (left Srednji vrh). There follow a few minutes of moderate ascent through dwarf pines and an increasingly panoramic path brings us to the top of Cjanovca.
