Access to starting point:
From Škofja Loka we drive towards Gorenja vas and further to Hotavlje, where we turn right in the direction of village Leskovica and ski center Cerkno. Already after few 100 meters, we leave the road which leads towards the village Leskovica and we continue driving right in the direction of Blegoš and factory Marmor Hotavlje. Further, we drive past the mentioned factory and quarry, and then we come to the next crossroad, where we continue slightly left in the direction of Volaka. Further, we drive by Volaščica, and all turn-offs to the left and right "we overlook" and we follow the road to a confluence of the rivers Volaščica and Javorjeva grapa. By the confluence of the rivers is settled a smaller parking lot, and nearby are situated also signposts for Blegoš.
Path description:
By the parking lot we notice signs for Blegoš, which point us on a steep road which ascends among nearby houses. At the last house, the road ends, and we continue the ascent on the right from two cart tracks. Cart track ahead is ascending diagonally above Volaščica, and then, only a little after we crossed grassy slope, brings us to an unmarked crossing, where we continue on the left unmarked path (slightly right Blegoš). The path ahead for some time crosses little steeper slopes and then it brings us by the left bank of Volaščica. Ahead we cross two side sources, and then in few steps of additional walking, we get to largest source of Volaščica.
We continue on the right side of the source, on at first a still well visible footpath which starts moderately ascending through the forest. Higher, the footpath becomes less distinct and for a short time also steeply ascends. Further, the path brings us out of the forest, on the bottom edge of a grassy slope, where for a short time it almost entirely vanishes. We continue on the edge of the forest and the path quickly brings us on a cart track which we in a moderate ascent follow to the left. The cart track then crosses a lane of a forest and then through an ample grassy meadow brings us to a wider cart track. When we step on the mentioned cart track, we follow it to the right, and after a shorter gentle ascent it quickly brings us to the church of St. Urh in Leskovica.
On the way: Izvir Volaščice (650m)
