Sveti Vid (Vidovska planota) - Sveti Primož in Felicijan (Osredek)

Access to starting point:
A) From Ig, Črna vas or Brezovica pri Ljubljani we drive to Podpeč, and from there we continue driving towards Rakitna and further towards Cerknica. A little before the mountain pass and settlement Pikovnik we leave the main road and continue left in the direction of Sveti Vid on at first a macadam road. After a few kilometers, we join the road which leads from the village Župeno towards Sveti Vid, and we follow it to the left. When we get to the settlement Sveti Vid (from the direction we are coming from there are no signs for the beginning of the settlement) at the junction we continue left and we drive approximately 100 m to the parking lot at the church of St. Vid (near the parking lot there is also the fire station and a NOB monument on it).
B) We leave Primorska highway at exit Unec, and then we continue driving towards Cerknica. A little before Cerknica we turn left towards Begunje pri Cerknici, and from Begunje we continue driving towards Rakitna, and on the main road towards the mentioned settlement we drive only to the end of the settlement Selšček, because from there we continue right towards the settlement Topol pri Begunjah. Further on, we drive through some villages, and we follow the signs towards the settlement Sveti Vid. When we get to the mentioned village we park on the parking lot in front of the church.
C) From Ljubljana we drive towards Kočevje, and then in the settlement Velike Lašče we turn right (from the direction Kočevje left) in the direction "Nova vas 18km". We continue driving through Mala Slevica, Karlovica, Podstrmec and on an ascending serpentine road through Zakraj and we come to a junction, where we turn right towards the settlements Lahovo, Ravnik, Zavrh, Polšeče, Jeršiče and Sveti Vid, at the latter we also park on the parking lot in front of the church.

Still before the mentioned settlement we go left towards the settlements Lahovo, Ravnik, Zavrh, Polšeče, Jeršiče and Sveti Vid, at the latter we also park on the parking lot in front of the church.

Path description:
From the parking lot at the church of St. Vid we return to the main road, and from there we continue towards Osredek. Already after a few dozen meters we get to a junction at the chapel, where we continue left in the direction of Osredek and only a little further at the unmarked junction again left. An asphalt road which continues without large changes in altitude or even slightly descending brings us after some time to the settlement Zala. Here at first a nice view opens up on the surrounding hills, and then we walk past a few more houses in the village.
After the village, a path branches off to the left downwards to the waterfall Kotel, which is 20 minutes away, and we continue straight, where the path or road leads past the Zala quarry. After the quarry, the road turns towards the east, where it first bypasses Presko on the south side (Preska is an 805 m high peak somewhat above the road), and then continues on and along the ridge of Debeli hrib.
From Debeli hrib there follows a somewhat longer descent, and then we get to the next marked junction, where a marked path from Rakitna joins from the left, and we continue straight in the direction of Bukovec, Krvava Peč and Iški Vintgar on the road which ascends somewhat.
From the junction onwards the forest thins out, the road transitions to panoramic meadows, from where a nice view opens up on the hills above the river Iška and on the hills above its tributaries. After a few minutes of further walking we arrive at the beginning of the village Osredek, and we continue a little further to the nearby tourist farm, where we can refresh ourselves, or a little further to the church of St. Primož and Felicijan.
