Access to starting point:
From the highway Zagreb - Reka we take the exit Kikovica, which leads us to the old road Zagreb - Reka. We follow the old road towards Zagreb, but only to the point where a road branches off to the left, ascending towards the ski slope Platak. We follow this road to a large parking lot, where we park.
Path description:
At the end of the large parking lot (on the right side in the direction of ascent) we will notice signposts for Snježnik, which direct us onto a forest road that gently ascends past the ski track. The road then enters the forest, where it begins to moderately ascend. After approximately 15 minutes of walking, the blazes direct us left upwards onto a rougher cart track, which quickly leads us to the next road. We continue left (badly marked) on the road, which after a few more minutes brings us to a crossing, where we continue right in the direction of "Snježnik over the ridge". The gradually worsening road in a few minutes brings us to the next crossing, where we continue left in the direction of Snježnik (right Risnjak). The worsening road we walk on, in a few dozen strides of a gentle ascent, brings us to a small saddle named Rimska vrata. Here we leave the road and continue slightly left on a footpath that ascends parallel to the road. The path quickly enters the forest, where it begins to ascend steeply. After a short ascent through the forest, the path brings us to the unvegetated slopes of Snježnik. The increasingly scenic path quickly leads us to the ridge, which we follow to the peak.
