Route description:
From the main road, signs for the church of Sv. Križa direct us onto a side road that continues northwards and leads us between houses. A little further on, we go right again towards Sv. Križa, and a few steps further at an unmarked junction slightly left. There follows an ascent along the stream; by a newer house the road turns slightly right and crosses to the other side of the stream, from which we then distance ourselves. There follows a walk through a narrow strip of forest; at the foot of the meadows, the road turns right once more and ascends transversely to a smaller hamlet, where it forks.
The somewhat shorter path continues along the asphalt road; at the yard by the sign, however, the footpath that is a few minutes longer leads through the forest.
We continue to the sign located behind the yard, then along the cart track into the forest. There follows a few minutes of gentle transverse ascent, then we join the path from Dobje or Poljane.
Here we go left and quickly leave the forest, then ascend along the edge of the forest to a small saddle, where the path from Srednja vas also joins, passing the mežnarija.
At the saddle we go left and past the chapel, with views of the surroundings, ascend to the church of Sv. Križa.
The description and photos refer to the situation in January 2021.
