Radlek - Slivnica

Access to starting point:
A) From the highway Ljubljana - Koper, take the Unec exit, then continue driving towards Cerkniča and further towards Nova vas na Bloke. When we arrive at the village Grahovo, at the intersection by the church of St. Mary leave the main road and continue driving left onto the local road. Further on, first drive through the village, then the road gradually takes us into the forest, where we arrive at a smaller intersection. Continue straight (left Martinjak) and drive on the macadam road for some more time, then arrive at the sharp right turn, in the middle of which the road to Slivnica branches off to the left. Here continue left and then park at a suitable spot by the road.
B) From the road Ljubljana - Kočevje near the settlement Žlebič head towards Sodražica, then continue driving towards Bloke. At the end of Nova vas na Bloke leave the main road leading towards Cerkniča and continue driving right towards Velike Bloke. At the end of Velike Bloke continue left towards Radlek, and the asphalt road soon brings us to the mentioned village. Behind the village the asphalt ends, and we continue on the macadam road, to which a poorer macadam road from Bločice soon joins from the left, while we continue straight on the road, which soon enters the forest. Further, drive past the NOB monument, after which we soon reach the left turn, in the middle of which the road to Slivnica branches off to the right. Here turn right and then park at a suitable spot by the road.

Path description:
From the starting point, we continue on the road by which we have parked, which in a moderate ascent brings us to a smaller intersection, where we continue slightly left towards Slivnica and the hunting cottage (the right road leads towards Kaluže). We continue along the slightly ascending road, following it for about 30 minutes, then just a little before the nearby hunting cottage the markings direct us left onto an initially parallel mountain path. A little further, the path from the mentioned hunting cottage joins from the right (from the left the path from Grahovo, the path that leads past the ruins of the church of St. Nicholas), and we continue straight along the gradually steeper mountain path. Higher up, the path levels out and brings us from the forest to several smaller meadows surrounded by bushes.
Further on, the bushes thin out even more, and increasingly beautiful views begin to open up from the path. A little further, a beautiful view also opens up onto Cerkniško polje and Snežnik, and our path here crosses a grassy cart track. A short ascent follows through a belt of low forest, then we join a somewhat wider cart track.
When we step onto the mentioned cart track we continue right (left Dom na Slivnici 3 minutes), we walk only about ten steps along it, then continue slightly left onto a beaten footpath, by which we quickly ascend to the summit of Slivnica.
