SSK Sam Ihan - Sveti Miklavž na Goropečah

Access to starting point:
We leave the Štajerska motorway at the Domžale exit, then follow the signs for Krumperk Castle. We park just a short distance after the motorway, on the parking lot by the SSK Sam Ihan ski jumping hills.

Path description:
At the end of the ski jumping center, by the spot where there is a no-parking sign on the macadam road, we head onto the footpath, which enters the forest and begins to ascend moderately. Higher up, the path splits several times, then rejoins higher on, and it does not matter which directions we choose; what matters is only that we ascend. After approximately 15 minutes of ascent, a marked path from Domžale also joins us, and we continue the gentle to moderate ascent, which ends on Veliki vrh.
From Veliki vrh we continue straight on the path that begins to descend moderately; at junctions we follow the otherwise rare blazes. A little lower we emerge from the forest and easily ascend across a meadow to the macadam road, where there is a marked junction.
The marked path continues toward Sveta Trojica, but we ascend the macadam road in a minute or two of further walking to the church of St. Kunigunda.
From the church we return to the last junction, then continue in the direction of Oklega and Sveta Trojica. When a few minutes further we leave the forest, we cross the route of the high-voltage power lines, then arrive at the equestrian center Konjeniški center Brdo pri Ihanu, where we step onto the asphalt road. Along the asphalt road we first descend slightly to a crossroads by which there is a chapel, then ascend along the road that continues left of the chapel (we can also reach the church of St. Miklavž if at the chapel we continue on the road that goes on the right side of the chapel).
The path ahead leads us along the asphalt road toward the settlement Dobovlje, but just a few minutes further, at the left bend, we leave it and continue right on a cart track. Initially the path still leads quite close to the asphalt road, then turns slightly to the right; higher up it brings us to a smaller junction, where we continue on the slightly right cart track (slightly left we can reach Dobovlje or Oklega). We then follow the cart track, which in a gentle ascent crosses the slopes to the right, all the way to the church of St. Miklavž on Goropeče.
The description and pictures refer to the condition in 2018 (January).
