Path description:
From the inn Kovač, first walk along the road leading towards Tacen, then, when the main road makes a slight right turn, continue slightly left onto a narrower local road (at the crossroads there is a no-driving sign, near the sign there is also an information board for the forest educational trail on Šmarnogorska Grmada). Along the narrower asphalt road, quickly reach a private parking lot, where the climbing path to Grmada branches sharply left; we continue straight and follow the road to the sign saying "private". Here, continue slightly left onto a marked footpath that begins to ascend gently through the forest. After more than 10 minutes of walking, reach the next junction, where continue right in the direction of the path over Zatrep (left Mazijeva steza to Grmada). There follow several successive junctions, and at all of them continue left in the direction of the path over Zatrep. When the successive junctions end, the path moves onto steep slopes over which it begins to ascend more steeply. During the ascent, mainly cross the slopes to the right, and follow the mentioned path to the junction with Romarska pot. Along the mentioned path, go past the chapel, then just before the path brings us out of the forest to Sedlo, continue left towards Grmada. The path ahead begins to ascend more steeply through the forest and gradually brings us to the forest-covered ridge of Grmada, along which we then ascend to the summit in a few minutes, from which some views open up, mainly towards the south and southwest.
