Žlebe - Sveta Katarina (Topol) (via Jeterbenk)

Access to the starting point:
a) First, drive into Ljubljana, then continue along the Celovška road towards Medvode. When you arrive in Medvode, turn left at the first traffic light over the railway line towards Gole Brdo, Žleb and Preska. After the railway line, turn left (right towards Preska) in the direction of Medno, Golo Brdo and Žleb, and then a little further right (right towards Medno). Only about 500 m further on, you will reach the next crossroads, where at the beginning of Seničica, turn right (right towards Golo Brdo) in the direction of Žlebe. When the residential houses of Seničica are finished, we arrive in the forest, where we continue left at the crossroads towards Žlebe (also slightly to the right there are signs for Žlebe - it is a circular road). Continue along the slightly ascending road, which we follow until we reach a small pass. At the pass, continue left on the dirt road, which quickly leads to the next crossroads, where you continue on the lower left road. From the crossroads, where there are also mountain direction signs, drive for about 100 m, or until you reach a left turn, at which there is a marked parking area.
b) From Škofja Loka, Kranj or Vodice, drive to Medvode and from there continue towards Ljubljana. At the last traffic light in Medvode, which is located about 100 m further from the Hofer store, turn right across the railway line in the direction of Gole Brdo, Žleb and Preska. After the railway line, turn left (right Preska) in the direction of Medno, Golo Brdo and Žleb, and then a little further right (straight Medno). Only about 500 m further on, you will reach the next crossroads, where at the beginning of Seničica, turn right (straight Golo Brdo) in the direction of Žlebe. When the residential houses of Seničica are finished, we arrive in the forest, where we continue left at the crossroads towards Žlebe (also slightly to the right there are signs for Žlebe - it is a circular road). Continue along the slightly ascending road, which we follow until we reach a small pass. At the pass, continue left on the dirt road, which quickly leads to the next crossroads, where you continue on the lower left road.

Path description:
From the parking lot continue along cart track in the direction of Katarina, Jeterbenk and St. Marjeta (Petelinc on the left), which continues along the left side of the brook. After a few 10 steps leave the cart track and continue right into the woods, first descending to and crossing the stream. On the other side, continue climbing gently for a short distance, then the path turns right and climbs steeply. A little higher, you reach a marked crossroads, where you continue left (St Margaret's Church on the right for 3 minutes) and then left again at the next crossroads. A little further on, the path splits into two parts, and we continue on the lower left (right Jeterbenk over Turnice), which is not marked for some time, but is marked at most of the crossroads.
From the unmarked crossroads we first descend gently to a small gully, then climb steeply to cart track, which we follow to the left, and we walk along it to the point where the "Petelinc" markers direct us right onto a steeper path, which in a few minutes takes us to a hayfield (there is a bench at the edge of the hayfield), which we climb steeply over. The way forward returns to the forest and leads us past the ruins to a marked crossroads, where we join the marked path from Slavkov's home at Golem Brdo.
Here we continue to the right and start climbing along the ridge Jeterbenk, which occasionally opens up some views to the south. Higher up, we reach a kind of headland, from which we descend to a small pass, where we join the path from Katarina. Continue straight ahead and in a few steps reach the summit, in the middle of which stands a large cross.
From the crossroads, a few steps below the summit, continue in the direction of Katarina, first descending steeply through the forest and then reaching a cottage, where the path is laid and leads to the road. Continue along the road, which quickly leads to the crossroads at the chapel.
From this crossroads, which is located at the edge of the forest, continue straight on (sharp left Slavkov dom na Golem Brdu, sharp right St. Continue along the scenic road, which quickly leads to the next crossroads, from where you continue slightly left in the direction of Katarina (the Jakob's path continues along the right-hand road, leading towards Kozomer Farm, and the path continues straight ahead between the two roads, towards Rog and St. Jakob). Continue along the gently to moderately ascending road, which you follow to the nearby church of St. Katarina (St. Katarina Church).
