Route description:
From the place where we parked, we first walk to the church of St. Michael and circle it on the lower left side, following the trail markings and at the beginning also the signs for Gozdna pot and Pot suverenosti; at a small intersection there are also mountaineering signs for Velika bukva and Pečice.
A short transverse ascent follows along a narrower asphalt road, where, if we step a few steps off the path to the left side, a wonderful view of Pišece opens up; a little further, at the chapel, we turn sharply right.
The path ahead leads past a small museum, the asphalt road soon enters the forest and a small valley, where we leave it and continue left following the signs for Pečice. A few minutes of steep ascent through the forest follow, then we reach a forested ridge, where the path levels out somewhat, and we continue following Knafelc's markings. Higher up we reach a somewhat better-trodden path with a starting point at the pond, or Grad Pišece; we keep slightly to the right, continue walking along the marked path and take care not to cross right onto the Gozdna pot Pišece. A moderate ascent through the forest follows, where we climb along the indistinct ridge of Velika Vagla; when the path reaches the highest point, the summit of Velika Vagla is to the right, only three steps away from the path.
