Route description:
From the starting point, we continue in the direction of Slovenski vrh, and the path goes from the initial meadow into the forest, through which it ascends along an initially quite overgrown path. After a short ascent, we quickly reach a cart track which we follow to the right, from there we go already after a few steps left into the forest, on a well-marked footpath. Further, we ascend more steeply again, then we reach a macadam road, on which we go a few steps to the right, then left onto a steep cart track. On the cart track we ascend for a few minutes, then at a few junctions we carefully follow the blazes. Higher up, we step again onto a forest road and soon leave it too. There follows again a more overgrown path for a while, then after crossing yet another road, we arrive at a marked junction, where the path from Jasnica joins from the right.
We continue in the direction of Slovenski vrh, on the path which in a few minutes of further moderate ascent brings us to the summit, on which stands a smaller antenna tower.
