We continue driving on the old regional road towards Ljubljana, and we are driving there to Kranj, where immediately after the bridge over the river Sava we turn right in the direction of Besnica.

Path description:
From the starting point, we go on a wide cart track which starts ascending diagonally towards the west. A moderately steep cart track which is ascending through the forest, a little higher turns to the left and splits into two parts. We continue on the left wider cart track which is further ascending through an indistinct small valley. When a relatively wide cart track turns even more to the left, we leave it and we continue the ascent a little right on a worse and also much steeper cart track. Higher, to the cart track joins few less noticeable paths, and we continue straight and on a cart track which in the meantime already changed into an easy to follow footpath, we ascend to a panoramic clearing.
From the clearing, from which a nice view opens up on Karawanks and Kamnik Savinja Alps, the path returns into the forest and after 3 minutes of additional walking brings us on a forested peak Rovnik.
