Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on a sidewalk and walk along the road in the direction towards Železniki. Opposite the Mercator Selca store at the pedestrian crossing, we carefully cross the main road, and then after the store we go right on the road in the direction of Lajše. When a little ahead, the road towards Lajše turns right, we go left on a side road which leads us past a few more houses and it gradually starts ascending. Behind the last house a beaten unmarked footpath branches off to the right, which at first leads along the edge of the forest and then turns right in the forest through which it ascends on and beside the cart track. Higher, we cross an asphalt road and we continue ascending on the best-beaten footpath. After a few minutes, we once again cross an asphalt road, and the path gradually transitions to a forested ridge, on which we ascend until we arrive at a hay meadow, from which a beautiful view opens up, reaching all the way to the Alps. On the meadow we continue left, we bypass the hayrack on the right side, and a little ahead we already step on a cart track which ascends diagonally. A little further, we arrive at the next meadow, which we cross along the far left edge, and the footpath then continues through the forest to the saddle northwest of Lepo brdo.
Here at a smaller sign a short path branches off sharply to the right, which leads to Lepo brdo, and we continue slightly left and keep walking on the cart track.
On the saddle a nice view opens up temporarily and the path then enters the forest, where from the junction we continue right (straight Kališe), a few steps ahead at the fork we choose the upper left road, from which we go right onto a beaten footpath which starts to ascend steeply through the forest. After a few minutes of steep ascent we step out of the forest, where the path flattens, and only a good minute of walking separates us from the church of Sv. Križ, which we already see in front of us.
