Path description:
From the starting point, turn right onto a side road that is closed to public traffic. Soon we arrive at a small crossroads, where we continue straight on (the left road ends on the slopes of Tomanova mountain pasture), and then the path leads us to the upper edge of a nearby pasture, from where we have a beautiful view of the hills above the Tuhinj valley. After the pasture, continue along the upper road on the left, then straight ahead at a small crossroads. A little further on, the forest ends and we arrive at the upper edge of a large hayfield, which opens up a view of the surrounding hills.
A few steps before we reach the slope, the cart track continues straight ahead, which we will also follow (continuing along the Ovčje jame road). After a short climb, we reach a crossroads of several tracks, and we continue slightly to the left, on a track that continues to climb. There are a few more forks, and we choose the forks where the path climbs the most. After the last crossroads on the above-mentioned section, there is a short descent, and then we bypass the nearby konto, after which we climb up to the saddle between Podbevško Peć and Seduc.
At this saddle, where there is also a cross with a registration book, we reach a marked path leading from the Črnivec Pass towards Menina mountain pasture, which we follow to the right. A little further on, we step onto another track, which occasionally opens up some views to the north. Cart track narrows a little further on to a wide path, which soon joins the next track, which quickly leads to a grazing fence, beyond which we enter the grazing areas of the nearby mountain pasture. The path continues with a few short ascents and descents and leads us across pastures and through the forest to the eastern edge of the mountain pasture Plain, where the shepherd's hut stands.
From the mountain pasture Plain continue in the direction of Dom na Menini planini and mountain pasture Meadow. The path continues gently uphill and quickly passes into a forest, through which it continues for some time. A little further on, join the wide cart track, which also soon leads out of the forest. Once out of the woods, enter the western part of mountain pasture Meadow, which is then crossed to a shepherd's hut on the other side of mountain pasture. A less visible path crossing mountain pasture leads there. From the hut, continue past the nearby cross and bell, after which the marked path turns right. A pleasant walk follows along the path, which climbs gently at first and then moderately over open pastures. Higher up, the path enters the woods, where it gradually begins to descend. The path soon begins to climb again and leads to a macadam road, which you follow to the right. Walk along the road for a few minutes and then the signs direct you to the right on a footpath which climbs moderately through the dense forest. Cross the road again at a higher level and the path gradually leads to the Menina mountain pasture pastures. With a few short ascents and descents, we continue on a pleasant path which, after a slightly longer descent, is joined by the path from Gornji Grad (the path past Jespe).
Continue to the right in the direction of Dom na Menini planini, following the path which crosses a strip of forest and then leads to a parking area near the aforementioned mountain lodge. From the parking lot, continue across the meadow and the path, from which a fine view of the Kamnik Savinja Alps chain opens up, leads quickly to the Doma na Menini mountain pasture.
From the house, continue along the marked path in the direction of Vivodnika. After some 10 steps of easy walking, the path climbs steeply for a short time, then lays down and leads us to a larger grassy slope, where we come across a direction sign with the inscription "Vivodnik - circular path". Continue slightly to the left (you can return to the right path) along a relatively winding path which quickly leads into a short strip of woodland. Here the path climbs again for a short time, then leads us out of the forest, where we can already see the lookout tower at Vivodnik in front of us, which is reached after a few steps of further walking.
Starting point - mountain pasture Levels 1:35, mountain pasture Levels - mountain pasture Meadow 30 minutes, mountain pasture Meadow - Dom na Menini planini 2:00, Dom na Menini planini - Vivodnik 15 minutes.
