Path description:
From the inn Kovač at first we walk by the road which leads towards Tacen, after the main road makes a light right turn, we continue slightly left on a narrower local road (by the crossroad is situated a sign prohibiting driving, near the signpost is also an information board of Forest teaching trail on Grmada). On a narrower asphalt road, we quickly get to a private parking lot, where the climbing path on Grmada branches off sharply to the left, and we continue straight and we follow the road to the sign with the caption private. Here we continue slightly left on a marked footpath which starts gently ascending through the forest. After a good 10 minutes of additional walking, we get to the next crossing, where we continue left in the direction of the path Mazijeva steza (straight path over Zatrep and Tacen).
The path ahead starts steeply ascending through the forest, and occasionally views starting to open up towards the valley and part of Polhograjsko hribovje. Higher, the footpath brings us on the ridge of Grmada, where we join the paths Pogačnikova and Westrova pot.
At the crossing, we continue right, and ridge path which continues through the forest, we follow all the way to the peak of Grmada.
From the top of Grmada we continue on a marked path which starts descending through the forest. After approximately 15 minutes of descent, the path brings us on a saddle Sedlo between Grmada and Šmarna gora, where we join the path from Tacen and Šmartno pod Šmarno goro.
We continue on the road, from which soon a footpath on Šmarna gora branches off. From here we have to the top two options.
We can ascend to the top on the forest road which leads us past a wish bell and children's playground or on a steep footpath which past the chapel in few minutes brings us to the summit, where both paths join.
On the way: Grmada (676m)
