When you reach Podblica, follow the main road, and above Podblica you reach the main road Kropa - Dražgoše, which you follow to the left (if the bend is too sharp, there is a turning point a few 10 metres to the right). Continue past the church of St. Jederti and then arrive at Dražgoše, where you first reach a crossroads where the road to Sv. Križ turns left.

Path description:
From the starting point, continue on the side road in the direction of Bičkova skala and Dražgoše mountains. At first walk along the steep asphalt road towards the hamlet of Jelenšče, then continue left on the road in the direction of house numbers Dražgoše 43, 68 and 70. With fine views, follow the asphalt road up to the edge of the forest, where a path branches off the road to the right, leading to Dražgoška gora, mountain pasture Kališe and Vodiška mountain pasture (the branch is not marked). After a short climb, continue right at the crossroads (the signpost points straight ahead), then climb through the hay meadow. When you reach a wider path a little further on, continue left (right to return to the tarmac road, but reach it higher up than your starting point), then follow it for some time, climbing cross-country to the left. A little further on you reach cart track, which you just cross and continue in the direction of mountain pasture Kališe and Vodice (left Dražgoška gora for 5 minutes, right Jelenšče), along a path that climbs a little more, a little further on, it reaches the edge of the plateau Jelovica, where it lays down and joins cart track a little further on (here it joins with the path leading past the lookout Dražgoška gora), which is followed slightly to the right. Cart track soon leads to a forest road where there is a marked crossroads.
The left-hand road continues towards Partizanski vrh, slightly downhill to the left leads to the abandoned mountain pasture Kališe, and we continue to the right, following the road in the direction of Vodiška mountain pasture. On the other side of mountain pasture Kališe, we soon leave the road and continue slightly left on the path in the direction of Vodice. From here on, follow the forest tracks, following the signs at the crossroads. A little further on, you will come back to the road, which you will follow to the left, and soon turn right, again in the direction of Vodice. Continue at the crossroads, still following the signs, and the path will lead you to Rženova bajte.
Go around the hut on the right-hand side, and the markings for Vodiška mountain pasture will lead you into a dense forest. Continue following the signs for Vodice or Vodiško mountain pasture and then arrive at a crossroads where the marked path to Ratitovec branches off to the left. Continue to the right in the direction already known to us, then the first path with Jamnik joins us from the right, and the second path joins us lower down at the NOB memorial.
Continue descending, this time on a path that descends quite steeply, but it stops when you reach the edge of Vodiška mountain pasture, from where you are only a two-minute walk away from the Partisan's Home.
Na Pečeh - Kališe 1:05, Kališe - Vodiška mountain pasture 1:30.
