Access to starting point:
A) From highway Ljubljana - Koper we go to the exit Brezovica, and then we continue driving in the direction Podpeč (to Podpeč we can also come from Črna vas or Ig). In Podpeč we continue in the direction of Borovnica, Krim and Rakitna and continue driving for a short time by the edge of Ljubljana marshes, and then signs for Rakitna point us to the left on a steep ascending road. The road then leads us through Preserje, where it also starts descending. After a short descent, we continue left in the direction of Krim and Rakitna, and then mostly ascending road we follow to Rakitna (after the turn-off for Krim the road starts descending), where we park on a parking lot at the church.
B) First, we drive to Cerknica, and then we continue driving in the direction of Begunje, when we get to Begunje we follow the signs for Rakitna. When we get to Rakitna we park on a parking lot by a parish church on Rakitna.
Path description:
By the parking lot we notice mountain signposts for Krim and Iški Vintgar, which point us on an ascending road. After a short ascent, we come to the unmarked crossroad, where the road branches off to the left towards the nearby bar, and we continue right, where few meters ahead we notice the blazes. After few 10 meters of additional walking, we come on next crossroad, where we continue on the left ascending road (right health resort on Rakitna and we follow it for a short time to a marked crossing. Here we leave the road and we continue slightly right on a marked cart track in the direction of Krim (sharply right Iški Vintgar). The path ahead ascends among meadows and in the upper part of those brings us to a crossing, where we continue on the right marked cart track. We continue on a cart track which is diagonally ascending towards the right, and during the ascent, we notice numerous information boards of Forest teaching trail. Higher, the path few times a little steeper ascends, and then it flattens and brings us on the saddle between Županov vrh and Rotovc.
From the saddle, we continue straight in the direction of Rotovc (slightly left Krim) on the path which starts moderately ascending through a thin forest and lane of bushes. This path, which soon comes out of the forest, we then follow all the way to the top of Rotovc, and we reach it after 5 minutes of walking from the crossing on the saddle.
