Sovodenj - Bevkov vrh (gentle path)

Access to starting point:
A) From Ljubljana or Kranj, we drive to Škofja Loka, from where we continue towards Gorenja vas. In Gorenja vas, we continue right in the direction of Cerkno and Žiri. The road then takes us past the village of Trebija, after which we turn right in the direction of Cerkno (left Žiri). We follow this road to the village of Sovodenj, where we park on the parking lot between the store and the fire station.
B) From Tolmin, we drive to Cerkno and follow the road ahead towards Škofja Loka. When we come to the village of Sovodenj, we park on the parking lot between the store and the fire station.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the left road, which leads us past the fire station. After a few steps of walking, at the refreshment place a marked road branches off to the right upwards in the direction of Bevkov vrh. The road first steeply ascends and after the first sharp left turn loses the asphalt surface. The steepness of the road then eases and a little further brings us to the place where a marked cart track branches off to the right upwards. The branch-off is poorly marked!
The cart track first ascends through the forest and then across grassy slopes brings us to the village, where we reach the road. We continue right and the path soon brings us to a path junction, where we continue left along the road in the direction of Bevkov vrh on the SPP. The road after a few minutes brings us to the other part of the village, where a marked cart track branches off to the left onto grassy slopes. The cart track gently ascends across grassy slopes and higher brings us to the next hamlet. A short descent on the road follows and the path brings us to a junction, where we continue right upwards. We follow the road to the next houses, where the path from Sivka joins from the left.
Here we continue right upwards past the houses onto grassy slopes across which we ascend at a moderate incline. In the upper part of the meadow the path turns left into the forest, where without major ascents and descents it crosses the slopes of Bevkov vrh. Further we follow the path, which brings us to ruined houses, where we notice the signs "žig pri kapelici". Further we ascend past the houses to the chapel, where the stamp is.
From the chapel we can also ascend to the forest-covered Bevkov vrh, which is a five-minute walk from here in the direction of Sovodenj.
