Stražišče - Leskovica (above Stražišče)

Access to starting point:
A) We drive to Rakitna, and then we continue driving towards Cerkica. After the settlement Pikovnik, the road starts descending steeper, and then follows driving through the settlements Kržišče, Beč, Župeno and Gorenje Otave. Even a little further, we leave the main road which leads towards Begunje pri Cerknici and we continue driving straight on a side road in the direction of the settlement Stražišče. We bypass Stražišče on the right bypass road, and when both roads join again, we continue straight and after some 10 meters we park at a suitable place by the road.
B) We drive to Cerknica, and then we continue driving in the direction of Begunje pri Cerknici and further towards Rakitna. From a quite winding road towards Rakitna, higher we turn left in the direction of the settlement Stražišče. We bypass Stražišče on the right bypass road, and when both roads join again, we continue straight and after some 10 meters we park at a suitable place by the road.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we return on an asphalt road to a bus stop, where the road branches off which leads to the settlement, and we continue on the left road which bypasses the settlement. We soon get to the spot where the cart track branches off to the left, which starts ascending through a small valley. We at first walk through a narrower lane of forest, higher on expansive pastures. When the cart track starts vanishing, in front of us on the top of Leskovica we already notice a pylon of a high-voltage power line, which further shows us the right path. To the top, which is situated a few meters before the mentioned pylon and on which there is a trigonometric point, only a few minutes of easy pathless terrain with nice views on Snežnik, Javornike, Nanos and Kamnik-Savinja Alps remain.
