Matke - Homič (past Kočet and on logging trail)

Access to starting point:
We leave Štajerska highway at exit Šempeter, and then we follow the signs for Šempeter, Šešče pri Preboldu, and Matke. When we arrive in Matke, we continue driving along the stream Kolja, and we drive to a crossroad where it says Matke left and right (house numbers left 56-65 and 81, right 55 and 66-71). Here is the beginning of the described path. We park in a suitable place nearby, ensuring that our parking does not obstruct traffic or any potential forestry or other activities.

Path description:
From the starting point, we head onto a slightly right road (slightly left toward Kamnik via the southern path and Mrzlica past Počivalnik), where we first cross the stream Kolja, and then, with a diagonal ascent toward the right, we climb to the tourist farm Uplaznik, where the road turns left. The road continues with a diagonal ascent toward the left, and blazes quickly lead sharply right onto a cart track (it is also possible to continue along the road, as it leads to the homestead Kočet, where it joins the marked path - the road path is slightly shorter than the marked path), which ascends for some time along the lower edge of the forest, then enters a dense forest and climbs onto the northeastern ridge of Golava, where it turns left and begins to ascend more steeply along the forested ridge. Higher up, we reach a marked crossing where we join the path starting from Prebold, and we continue left toward Mrzlica (straight toward Golava and Mrzlica via Golava, right toward Prebold).
Next follows a gentle diagonal descent, and then we reach the meadow Na Goljavi, where we bypass on the right side the homestead "Pri Golavski Micki". The path ahead leads us along a macadam road, and when we reach the indistinct southern ridge of Golava, the path Andrejeva pot to Golava (sometimes called path Ovčja pot) branches off to the right.
We continue along the road, and a little lower, paths from Marija Reka join from the right, namely from the starting points at Strgarjev kamnolom quarry and Koritnikov most bridge, but we continue left in the direction of Mrzlica and descend slightly further along the road.
At the Kočet homestead, we reach the saddle between Golava and Homič, where we turn right (straight leads to Mrzlica along and by the ridge of Homič), and we walk along the road to the Zgornji Dolinar homestead, where signs for Mrzlica direct us left onto a path that ascends above the road.
Here we diagonally ascend through a scenic meadow, from which a beautiful view of Golava opens up, and then the path enters the forest and, after a short crossing, brings us to a forest road, which we follow upwards, passing a small spring, and continue to its end, where a marked crossing is located by a turning point.
From the crossing, we continue left in the direction of Mrzlica along a forest logging trail (straight leads to Mrzlica via Kriška planina), and we begin ascending the marked logging trail, which higher up has several crossings where we follow the trail blazes. Higher up, the path becomes quite steep, and the steepness eases only when we reach a macadam road at an altitude of approximately 1000 meters, where we turn left in the direction of Mrzlica (right leads via Kriška planina, Podmeja, and Trbovlje).
We don’t walk long along the road, as signs for the Prebold mountain path quickly direct us left onto a footpath leading toward the summit of Homič (straight along the road leads to Mrzlica). The path ahead becomes quite steep and leads us along the forested ridge of Homič, whose summit we reach after approximately ten minutes of ascent from the point where we left the road.
Starting point - Kočet 1:10, Kočet - Homič 1:15.
