Zavrh pri Trojanah - Golčaj

Access to starting point:
A) From the Ljubljana - Maribor highway, we take the Blagovica exit, then continue driving on the parallel old road towards Trojane. Before we reach Trojane, signs for Zavrh pri Trojanah direct us right onto a narrower local road, beside which we notice hiking markers for Doline and Stolp na Rebri. We can park already near the intersection, more precisely beside the nearby monument, or drive the car a little higher and then park in a suitable place beside the road.
B) From the Maribor - Ljubljana highway, we take the Trojane exit, then continue driving on the parallel old road towards Domžale. At the end of Trojane, in the middle of the right bend, signs for Zavrh pri Trojanah direct us left onto a narrower local road, beside which we notice hiking markers for Doline and Stolp na Rebri. We can park already near the intersection, more precisely beside the nearby monument, or drive the car a little higher and then park in a suitable place beside the road.

Path description:
From the starting point, we continue on a narrower asphalt road, from which soon a nice view opens up on Trojane. Higher, the asphalt ends, and we continue on a macadam road in the direction towards Reber, Doline and Golčaj. Only a little further, the road turns to the right and passes into the forest, through which it starts ascending steeper. After a good 10 minutes of additional walking, the road flattens and brings us to an intersection, beside which there is a smaller sign.
Here we continue slightly left (slightly right Doline) and continue on a moderately ascending road, on which we quickly arrive at the next junction at a larger quarry.
Here we continue right in the direction of Golčaj (sharply left Reber, left Kolovrat) and continue on the road which starts moderately descending. During the descent, the path past the farm Dolinar (Doline) joins from the right, and we follow the road to a smaller house, where we turn left upwards on the transversely ascending cart track. The cart track already after a few minutes brings us to a smaller saddle, where we continue right. There follows a few-minute crossing, then the cart track changes into a footpath, on which we quickly arrive at the ridge Na škalah. We reach the ridge right on a smaller saddle, where we pass to the left southern side of the ridge. When we step on the south side of the ridge, the path gradually starts descending transversely. After a good 15 minutes of moderate descent, the path brings us out of the forest onto panoramic and relatively scenic slopes. We continue the descent over scree and several smaller gullies to the forest, through which we quickly descend to the nearby macadam road.
When we step on the road, we follow it to the right and walk along it to the village Borje pri Mlinšah. Here at the intersection by the chapel, we continue right, then past the church we walk above the village. We walk along the road for a few more minutes, then signs for Golčaj direct us slightly left onto a footpath, which first gently ascends, then moderately descends to another road, initially still asphalt. The asphalt soon ends, and the road also after a few minutes of ascent temporarily starts descending. A little further on, we arrive at a smaller intersection, where we continue slightly right on the marked road, which quickly brings us to the church of St. Neža on Golčaj.
From the church, we continue in the direction of the summit Golčaj and on a somewhat steeper path in two minutes of additional walking ascend to Golčaj, where there is a logbook box and NOB monument.
