A) From the Medvode - Škofja Loka road, at the beginning of Škofja Loka we drive in the direction of Poljanska Valley, then after the Sten Tunnel we turn right towards Puštal. A little further, we go right again, then we drive through Puštal and Hrastnica Valley. We then follow the asphalt road which leads us along the bottom of the valley to the crossroads before the Nova Hrastnica bus station, where the road branches off to the right towards Sveti Andrej. At the crossroads, where there are no organized parking spots, the described path begins.

Path description:
From the starting point, we head onto the asphalt road in the direction of Sveti Andrej. The road immediately starts to ascend more steeply and leads us past a few spots where it is possible to park. A little higher, a beaten but unmarked path branches off to the right, which soon returns to the road, but after a few steps we leave it again. There follows a somewhat longer ascent through the forest, then we return to the road, along which we continue for a few minutes. Higher up, the road turns sharply right, but we leave it a little further on, as we notice the continuation of the unmarked path on the left, which proceeds along a somewhat overgrown cart track. A few minutes further, the path turns right and ascends more steeply over a more overgrown section, above which we join the path that leads past the Krmelj-Blek farm.
We continue right and ascend along a wider cart track to a junction, where we reach the marked path that leads from the church of St. Andrej to the church of St. Ožbolt.
We continue right along the road that leads us past the NOB monument and along the edge of a panoramic meadow, ascending to the church of St. Andrej, from which a beautiful view opens up.
