Path description:
By the beginning of the path, signs for Čemšeniška planina direct us onto street Levstikova ulica, along which we start at first gently, but when we reach the gorge, we ascend a little more steeply. We bypass the company Gip beton MTO Zagorje on the left side, then go slightly right onto the road, where the blazes continue. A little further, at the last house, the road ends, and we continue on a footpath that bypasses gardens on the left side. The path then flattens and soon joins a macadam road, which in a few steps leads us to an asphalt road that we follow to the left. The asphalt road also brings us to a crossroad in a few steps, and we continue on a footpath that bypasses the left road on the right side and then leads us by the sports airport. When we reach the next road on the other side of the meadow, we follow it to the right, ascending along it to a crossroad a few minutes away, located at the chapel, where there is also a bench for resting.
Here we leave the marked path that leads further towards Čemšeniška planina and continue along the left road, which, with views of the surrounding hills and without significant changes in altitude, brings us to the start of the village Vine, where at the crossroad we choose the left road, and in a few minutes ascend to the church of St. John the Baptist.
