Access to starting point:
A) First, we drive to Gorenjo vas in Poljanska dolina (to here from Škofja Loka via the new bypass, which bypasses Škofja Loka, Horjul or Polhov Gradec), then we continue driving towards Žiri and Cerkno. After the settlement Trebija and just before the bridge over Poljanska Sora, we leave the main road towards Žiri and continue driving right in the direction of Cerkno. Further on, we drive on a somewhat more winding road, on which we quickly arrive at the settlement Sovodenj, where in the middle of the settlement we park on a larger parking lot near the Mercator store.
B) We drive to Žiri (to here from Vrhnika or Logatec), then we continue driving towards Škofja Loka. Before the settlement Trebija we turn left, onto the road in the direction of Cerkno. Further on, we drive on a somewhat more winding road, on which we quickly arrive at the settlement Sovodenj, where in the middle of the settlement we park on a larger parking lot near the Mercator store.
C) We leave the main road Idrija - Straža - Želin at the junction for the settlement Jazne, then we ascend to the mentioned settlement, from where we continue driving towards Sovodenj. After a smaller saddle, where the marked path to Bevkov vrh branches off to the left, the road starts to descend, and we drive on it to the settlement Sovodenj, where we park on a larger parking lot near the Mercator store.
D) We drive to Cerkno, from there we continue driving in the direction of Škofja Loka. Further on, we drive on an ascending road that takes us through Planina pri Cerknem, on a winding road, to the pass Kladje, after which we begin to descend towards Sovodenj. When we arrive in Sovodenj, we park on a larger parking lot near the Mercator store.

Path description:
From the starting point, we walk to the fire station PGD Sovodenj and Zadružni dom Sovodenj, where we already notice the first yellow signs for Mrzli vrh. The signs direct us to the road that continues along the stream Javorščica. Soon we arrive at a junction, where we continue straight on the main road in the direction of Mrzli vrh and Sivka (left poultry farm, farm Korenine-Kržišnik). The asphalt road then leads us past the junction of the road to the right towards the house with house number Laniše 6, the valley through which we walk widens and the road brings us to part of the settlement Koprivnik. Through the settlement we continue straight, when the settlement ends the path leads us past the information board of the path Pot ob rapalski meji. A little further we arrive at a marked junction, where we continue left in the direction of Mrzli vrh, Sivka, mountain hut and Javorjev Dol (right Jazne-Otalež). The path continues on the asphalt road, higher up we arrive at a few houses in the settlement Javorjev Dol.
When higher up the asphalt road turns left and from the valley goes onto the slope, we continue right on the side road in the direction of Mrzli vrh and homestead Likar. On the macadam road we ascend transversely to the right, after a belt of forest we arrive at the house with house number Mrzli Vrh 12, where we leave the road and continue sharply left on the path towards Mrzli vrh. The path after some 10 steps turns right and ascends parallel to the road for a short time, then turns left into the forest, through which it begins to ascend more steeply on a cart track. The cart track soon levels out, then brings us to a smaller saddle southeast of Likarjeva Sivka, where we join the marked path.
We continue left towards Mrzli vrh (right Bevkov vrh), so that we bypass the homestead Tušar on the left side. A little further the path forks, we continue straight (left yellow signs for Mrzli vrh, the path brings us near Planinska koča Mrzl'k). There follows a walk along the edge of a panoramic hay meadow, where on the right we notice the overgrown Sivka, and a little further we step onto the asphalt road.
When we step onto the road we continue right in the direction of Sivka (left Koča Mrzl'k and Sovodenj via the asphalt road). The path further leads past the farm Vodičar, a little further at the nearby barn there is the next junction.
We continue right towards Ledine (left Ledinica, Breznica, Žiri and Mrzli vrh) and continue on the asphalt road for a short time, then we arrive at the junction by the chapel.
We continue on the middle road in the direction of Sivka and follow the gentle macadam road only for a short time, as the signs for Sivka then direct us slightly right onto a footpath, which after a few steps enters the forest. When we enter the forest the path rises moderately and after about 5 minutes of further walking brings us to the summit of Sivka, where there is a stamp box.
